List of Ingredients
- 9 OZ. of chicken breast
- 3 OZ. of popcorn kernels
- 1 WHOLE of egg
- Cornmeal
- Peanut oil
- Extravirgin olive oil

Method
Heat a large, shallow pan with 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil; drop in the popcorn, cover and cook on high heat until all the kernels pop. Remove from the heat and season with salt.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-size nuggets, about 1/2 inch. Dip them in beaten egg and then bread them in the cornmeal.
Fry the chicken nuggets in plenty of boiling peanut oil for a couple of minutes; they should be golden and crispy.
Drain the chicken nuggets on paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Mix the fried chicken with the popcorn and serve immediately in paper cones.
