Chick-Fuh-Lay Nuggets and Sauce

I found this recipe on Pinterest and decided to give it a try. I'm sure glad I did because it was sooo good!

For the sauce:
1/2 cup mayo
1 Tbsp. mustard (regular prepared yellow mustard)
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. vinegar
2 Tbsp. honey

For the nuggets:
8 chicken tenders or 6 chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
2 1/2 cups flour
1/4 powdered sugar
4 tsp. salt
3 tsp. pepper
1 tsp paprika
peanut oil or canola oil for frying (i used canola)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the sauce, mix well and refrigerate.

2. In a large dutch oven or stock pot (I used a milti-cooker), heat up oil over medium high heat to 375 degrees (see not below).

3. While the oil is heating, in a gallon ziploc bag, combine flour, sugar, salt, pepper, and paprika. Seal and shake to combine.

4. throw the chicken pieces into the bag, close it, and shake until all are coated well.

5. Using a slotted spoon, fish out the nuggets and shake off excess flour and place on a clean plate.

6.Before you start frying, prepare a plate by lining sheets of paper towl to drain the nuggets after frying.

7. When ready, place about 10-12 nuggets in the oil and let cook for about 5 min (but it also depends on the size of your nuggets)

8. Remove nuggets from oil with a spider strainer or slotted spoon and set on lined plate to drain. Continue until all nuggets have been cooked.

9. Serve hot with dipping sauce.

SIDE NOTES: If you don't have a thermometer for the oil, you and test the oil by dropping a small piece of chicken or batter into the oil and if it sinks and floats to the top with swift speed, the oil is just right. If it sinks and takes forever to come up to the top, the oil is too cold. If it sizzles and immediately fries up, the oil is too hot.
