First confession, I truly love these, they taste just like Chick-Fil-A Grilled Nuggets, only better, you can have them in less than 5 minutes, after you marinate them in your dill pickle mixture. My kids absolutely love Chick-Fil-A, but I am on KETO and yesterday we could not figure out if the Grilled Chick-Fil-A Nuggets were KETO friendly, so I decided to shoot with this recipe. They are awesome and taste just like the real thing.

Here are the step by step instructions, so you can recreate in your own home,

First confession, I truly love these, they taste just like Chick-Fil-A Grilled Nuggets, only better, you can have them in less than 5 minutes, after you marinate them in your dill pickle mixture. My kids absolutely love Chick-Fil-A, but I am on KETO and yesterday we could not figure out if the Grilled Chick-Fil-A Nuggets were KETO friendly, so I decided to shoot with this recipe. They are awesome and taste just like the real thing.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast (or tenderloins)
• 1/2 cup dill pickle juice
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon celery salt
• 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. I started with chicken tenderloins and cut them up into 1-inch pieces. Added them to a bowl, large enough so I could marinate the nuggets.
2. Add pickle juice and heavy cream, so that all of the nuggets were covered. Let sit for about 30 minutes. Then I drained the pickle juice and heavy cream, dried them off with a paper towel.
3. Added the dried chicken into the mixing bowl with the spice mixture.
4. Mix well.
5. Spread the coated nuggets on a greased air fryer tray or in a greased air fryer basket (spread them out, do not crowd) Set in the air fryer. And set the temperature to 350 degrees F, for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, check and see if the chicken is fully cooked. If not add enough time so that they are done with an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. I have an OMNI so I added 3 minutes at 450 degrees F, (broiler setting) you can omit if you don’t have a broil function on your air fryer.
6. Plate, serve and enjoy!
