Part 2/7:
To kick things off, Chef Nathan begins by selecting boneless skinless chicken breasts, though he notes that any part of the chicken can be used depending on personal preference. The chicken is cut into bite-sized chunks resembling perfectly crafted chicken nuggets. For Nathan, today’s cooking is more than just another video; it’s an act of love and connection, particularly for his friend CJ.
With the chicken pieces prepped, we move on to the magic of buttermilk. It’s this rich ingredient that gives the chicken its signature flavor and tenderness. Combined with eggs, the buttermilk forms a luscious mixture that will coat the chicken beautifully.
