McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets are bite-sized pieces of chicken that are made from a seasoned blend of chicken breast meat, water, and a mix of starches and flours. They’re coated in a crispy tempura batter, giving them a golden-brown finish when fried. Originating from American fast food cuisine, these nuggets pair well with dipping sauces like barbecue, honey mustard, or ranch. While convenient and flavorful, their nutritional profile includes both positives and concerns. They are a source of protein, providing approximately 10 grams per 4-piece serving, but also contain higher levels of sodium and fat due to the frying process. Those mindful of their diet may want to enjoy them occasionally as part of a balanced meal.
