Steps:
- Split the chicken breasts in half down the center. Trim them neatly to remove peripheral membranes and bits of fat. Cut each breast half into six pieces of equal size.
- Put the egg, water, salt and pepper in a bowl and beat well to blend.
- Put the bread crumbs on a large platter. Add the sage, thyme, cumin and pepper, and blend well.
- Add the pieces of chicken to the egg mixture and toss to coat well. Drain off the excess. Transfer the chicken pieces to the bread-crumb mixture and toss to coat thoroughly. Put the coated pieces in another dish, separating them so that they do not touch.
- Heat the oil for deep frying in a cast-iron skillet. There should be about 1 inch of oil. When hot (at 360 degrees) but not smoking, add about one-third of the chicken pieces. Do not overcrowd. Cook, stirring with a slotted or perforated spoon so that the pieces brown evenly. It will take about 3 minutes until they are golden brown.
- Transfer the nuggets to paper towels and drain.
- Continue adding batches of chicken pieces and cook until all the chicken is done. Serve with tomato-horseradish sauce.
