How to make perfect McDonald’s McNuggets at home

A TikTok user has released a video of how to make McNuggets at home and it’s been viewed more than 27 million times.  

Joshuah Nishi, who goes by ‘NishCooks’ on TikTok, has created the perfect recipe for McDonald’s Chicken Nuggets.

The video starts with blending the chicken, before seasoning with salt and pepper and molding into the famous McNugget shapes (or as best you can). 

The key to getting the shapes is to keep your hands wet so the nugget mixture doesn’t stick to your fingers.

Then freeze the nuggets for around 2 hours or until they are completely frozen and firm. 

While the nuggets freeze, create your wet and dry mix for frying. In two separate bowls mix:

Wet: 

• Egg
• Water
• Cornstarch

Dry:

• Flour
• Cornstarch
• Onion Powder
• Garlic

The video explains to go ‘dry, wet, dry, wet’ before frying in hot and bubbling oil and finally, “take them out and you got chicken McNuggets”.
