Items needed to answer the question, How do I make spicy Buffalo Chicken Nugget Dippers. Items include:  Chicken Nuggets  Cayenne Pepper  Garlic Powder  Salt  Butter  Hot Sauce  Honey
  • Chicken Nuggets 1 pack (about 20-25 pieces)
  • Cayenne Pepper 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic Powder 1 teaspoon
  • Salt A pinch
  • Butter 2 tablespoons
  • Hot Sauce 1/4 cup
  • Honey 1 teaspoon

Take note
Handle the spicy ingredients with care and make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after preparing the dippers. Keep a glass of cold milk nearby in case the heat becomes too much to handle. Also, please note that cooking times may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on the dippers to ensure they're perfectly crispy and golden.

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will ensure that your nugget dippers crisp up nicely without sticking.

2

Prepare the Chicken Nuggets

Take a pack of regular chicken nuggets (about 20-25 pieces) and place them in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of salt over the nuggets. Give it a good toss to coat the nuggets evenly with the spicy goodness.

3

Bake the Nuggets

Arrange the seasoned chicken nuggets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Pop them into the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through to ensure even browning.

4

Make the Buffalo Sauce

While the nuggets are baking, it's time to whip up the signature Buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in 1/4 cup of hot sauce and 1 teaspoon of honey. Feel free to adjust the amount of hot sauce according to your spice tolerance.

5

Coat the Nuggets

Once the chicken nuggets are perfectly crispy, remove them from the oven and transfer them into a large mixing bowl. Pour the prepared Buffalo sauce over the nuggets and give them a good toss to coat them thoroughly. Feel free to drizzle some extra sauce on top if you're feeling extra spicy!
