Evies Ranch Nuggets Recipes

Steps:

• For the chicken nuggets: Whisk the eggs together with 2 tablespoons water in a shallow bowl or dish.
• Put the panko in a separate shallow bowl or dish and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix together with a fork to evenly combine.
• Put the flour in a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag along with the seasoned salt, lemon pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Seal the bag and shake to combine.
• Open the bag and add the chicken. Seal and shake to coat the chicken well.
• Open the bag and begin to coat the nuggets in batches. First, dip a few pieces in the egg wash until coated, then roll in the seasoned panko, pressing the panko evenly into the chicken to make sure it adheres. Work in batches until all the nuggets are coated, placing coated nuggets on a plate.
• Heat 2 inches oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven until it reaches 325 degrees F. Line a plate with paper towels.
• Fry the nuggets in 2 batches, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown and completely cooked through, about 3 1/2 minutes per batch.
• Remove each batch with a slotted spoon or a fish spatula to the lined plate and allow the nuggets to drain.
• For the sandwiches: Spread the roll bottoms with 1 tablespoon ranch dressing each. Lay 1 piece of butter lettuce on the dressing. Lay 4 pieces of bacon (2 full slices) on the lettuce. Place 4 to 6 chicken nuggets on the bacon. Top with a layer of pickles, then drizzle with a touch more ranch dressing. Top with 2 slices of tomato. Squeeze ketchup on the lids of the sandwiches and close them.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place tortilla chips and flour into a food processor or blender, and process into crumbs. Pour into a bowl. Place chicken pieces into a sealable plastic bag with sour cream. Massage the bag to make sure chicken pieces are coated with sour cream. Let sit for 5 minutes.
• Dip coated chicken pieces into the chip crumbs, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Spray lightly with vegetable cooking spray.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
