Chicken McNuggets

I like McDonald's chicken McNuggets.
Here is a recipe to make them at home.

Ingredients:
Vegetable oil (in fryer)
1 egg
1 cup water
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup tempura mix
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon Accent
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
4 chicken breast filets,
cut into 6-7 bite sized pieces.
Dipping sauce

Directions:
Beat the egg and then combine it with
1 cup water in a small, shallow bowl. Stir.
Combine the flour, salt, Accent, pepper,
onion powder and garlic powder in a
one gallon size sealable plastic bag.
Pound each of the breast filets with
a mallet until about 1/4 inch thick.
Trim each breast filet into bite sized pieces.
Coat each piece with the flour mixture
by shaking in the plastic bag a few times.
Remove and dredge each nugget in the egg mixture,
coating well. Then return each nugget to the
flour/seasoning mixture. Shake to coat. Put nuggets,
bag and all, in the freezer for at least an hour.
Cover and refrigerate remaining egg mixture.
After freezing, repeat the "coating" process.
Preheat oven and large cookie sheet to 375 degrees F.
Deep fry the chicken for 10-12 minutes
or until light brown and crispy.
(cook only about 9 at a time)
Drain on paper towels 3-5 minutes.
Place deep-fried nuggets on preheated cookie
sheet in oven and bake another 5-7 minutes.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
