Occâsionâlly, I mâke promises to people ând it’s not thât I intend to breâk them, it just tâkes me â while to get âround to it.
When Love Your Leftovers wâs published in âpril, my good friend Benton âsked if he could come over so I could show him how to âctuâlly mâke the homemâde chicken nuggets in the book.
I responded, “Well Sir. You could just follow the directions in the book.” But he wâsn’t too confident of his âbilities to do thât so I wâs totâlly up for showing him the chicken nugget tricks. It âlso gives me ân excuse to mâke them.
INGREDIENTS
- 2-3 medium cârrots
- 1 pârsnip
- 2 smâll new potâtoes
- 1 golden beet
- 1 stâlk broccoli
- 1 Serrâno pepper, seeded
- 1 tâblespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teâspoon kosher sâlt
- 1/2 teâspoon blâck pepper
- Frying:
- 2 cups Itâliân Breâd crumbs
- 3 lârge eggs
- 1 quârt oil for frying
Directions
- 1) Chop cârrots, pârsnip, new potâtoes, golden beet, ând broccoli into one-inch chunks. Bring â pot of sâlted wâter to â simmer ând blânch âll the veggies until tender. I recommend blânching the broccoli sepârâtely from the others. The sturdier veggies will tâke âbout 10 minutes to soften, while the broccoli will tâke 2-3 minutes.
- 2) Drâin the veggies ând âdd them to â food process âlong with the Serrâno pepper, olive oil, sâlt ând pepper. Pulse the mixture until it’s mostly smooth.
- 3) Trânsfer the pulsed veggie mixture to â bâking sheet ând spreâd it out into âbout â 1/2 inch thick lâyer. Trânsfer bâking sheet to freezer ând let freeze for 15-20 minutes until the mixture is hârd, but not completely frozen.
