What’s in a Chicken Nugget?
Chicken nugget is a piece of chicken, either whole or composed from a paste of finely minced chicken or chicken skin, which is then coated in batter or breadcrumbs before being cooked. Chicken nuggets are often made using a high proportion of chicken skin because without the skin the consistency would not be sticky enough for the nuggets to hold together. In this clip, Jamie Oliver shows the kids what’s in chicken nugget and how is it made. He is on a mission trying to get kids to understand and eat fresh food, and improve the horrible nutrition in the schools.
