Start Cooking

Prepare the Chicken

1. Place nugget ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Shape into balls. Dip into bread crumbs mixed with sesame seeds.

2. Heat 2/3 inch (one and a half centimeters) oil in a frying pan. Fry nuggets on both sides until golden, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. (Alternatively, preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a pan lined with Gefen Easy Baking Paper and arrange nuggets on top. Spray well with cooking spray. Bake about 13 minutes, until golden.)

3. Combine all chili mayonnaise ingredients and mix well.

4. Spread the mayonnaise in a pita or a warm tortilla. Place nuggets inside and add fresh vegetables.
