April Fools' Day Chicken Nuggets & French Fries#SundayFunday

When I made these nuggets and gave them to my hubby to enjoy he wouldn't touch them thinking that am really giving him chicken to eat. Then I told him this a April Fools Food Prank he looked at me quite believable wondering whether I am speaking the truth.
After eating one he looked at me stunned, since they looked exactly like Mac chicken nuggets. Do try this prank on your kid's or friends and see their reaction.

Ingredients 
For The Nuggets 

Vanilla Pound Cake - cut into squares 
8 - 10 Biscuits - coarsely powdered 
½ Cup Vanilla Icing - I used ½ Cup Icing Sugar + 1 -2 Teaspoons Milk 
For The French Fries  
Pound Cake Slices  
Crinkle Cutter

Method
Place the biscuits in a zip lock bag and crush them with a meat mallet to get coarse crumbs. Transfer crumbs to a bowl. Keep aside.
Get a store-bought vanilla pound cake or make your own ( I made eggless vanilla pound cake ) and ¼" thick squares or nugget shapes. Reserve some slices for fries later.
Make the icing adding a teaspoon of milk at a time to make a coating consistency icing. Dip the nuggets into vanilla icing evenly until all the cakes slices / nuggets are evenly covered. Place them on a wire rack to remove the excess icing. 
Carefully pick up one nuggets at a time and dredge in the crushed biscuit powder. Return to the wire cooling rack to harden. Serve with jam of your choice. Cut reserved slices with a crinkle cutter to make fries.
April Fool's Day Chicken Nuggets are ready!

Chicken Nuggets

Homemade chicken nuggets with the same texture and taste as the store ones. I have seen Nigella Lawson on TV using this method to make the nuggets. This is her recipe.

My daughter loves these nuggets, because they are exactly like the ready to eat ones. You can freeze these nuggets too after coating for 15 to 20 days. Take them out and deep fry them serve them as One Bite Appetizers to your guest.

Sending this to BM#54 week 3 day  2 under the theme " One Bite Appetizers".

Ingredients

250 Grams Chicken breasts, cut into ½ inch cubes
1 Egg - beaten
½ Cup All Purpose flour
1 Teaspoon Garlic powder
1/2 + 1/4 Teaspoon Pepper powder
1/2 + 1/4 Teaspoon salt
Oil for frying

Method

Pat dry the chicken pieces.
Beat egg in a shallow bowl, add the chicken pieces, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon pepper powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt, mix well and keep aside for 30 minutes.

In a zip lock bag mix the flour, 1/4 teaspoon pepper powder and salt, shake well so that the seasonings are incorporated.


Take a chicken piece at a time from egg mixture, transfer into the bag, shake the bag well to coat evenly.
Transfer coated chicken on to a plate. Repeat the process till all the chicken pieces are done.
