ASIAN-STYLE CHICKEN NUGGETS
This recipe comes from two different cultures: Asian and American--just like me! This is a very simple recipe. I recommend deep-frying the chicken in a pot or saucepan instead of a frying pan so that it doesn't make a mess on the stove top. Enjoy!

ASIAN STYLE CHICKEN
I went to a big Asian market and stocked up on some great Asian sauces and vinegars. I thought I would try them and this is what I came up with. I am thinking it is more of a Japanese style because I used mirin, which is a slightly sweet vinegar and I think that it is mostly used in Japanses style cooking, although I could be wrong about that! When I made this I used skinless, bone-in chicken thighs, but you could also try to use boneless thighs, as well as boneless chicken breasts as well. I prefer dark meat but the white meat should work just as well! You could also keep the skin on if you prefer, but I personally do not. Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large skillet pan, heat the oil and butter together until hot. Add the chicken. Salt and pepper chicken to taste. Cook for about 3-4 minutes and flip, adding salt and pepper to taste on other side. Continue to cook on other side for about 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the pan onto a plate and reserve. Add another tbsp butter and add the chopped shallots and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes and the shallots are soft and the aroma of the garlic is strong.
- Add the chicken broth and the hot water and stir well with the shallots and garlic. Add the rest of the ingredients, tasting after all are included to ensure own taste. You may need to adjust to your own preference.
- Add the chicken back into the pan, including any juices on the plate that may have been released, this gives great flavor! Put a lid on the pan and simmer for about 15-20 minutes and the sauce has soaked into the chicken. You may need to flip the chicken thighs a few times through out to help incorperate the sauce.
- Enjoy with Steamed Rice!

CHINESE CHICKEN NUGGETS
This gluten free recipe is great to use for Chinese stir fries calling for breaded chicken pieces like sweet and sour or sticky chicken. I also serve them to my young nephews who like them way better than the ones mommy buys at the store. They like to dip them in honey or ketsup. I like to dip them in a spicy coriander sauce.

Tips:
- To ensure crispy chicken nuggets, use a combination of all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. The cornstarch helps create a crunchy coating.
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, ginger, and garlic before coating and frying.
- To achieve a golden brown color, fry the chicken nuggets in hot oil (350°F) until they are crispy and cooked through. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this can cause the oil temperature to drop and result in soggy nuggets.
- Serve the chicken nuggets immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
