Our take on the Nashville Hot Chicken craze brings a unique flavor and heat to these nuggets. If you are looking for a little less heat, substitute Hop Barons Bad A** BBQ Rub. For a healthier version, use your air-fryer sett to 400 for 15 minutes, flipping halfway.

Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 bag Hop Barons Fish Fry
- 1 bottle of beer
- Canola Oil

- Pound chicken to 3/4" thickness and cut into 1" cubes
- Place chicken in bowl, cover with batter and set aside
- Using a high-sided pan or cast iron, add 1" of canola oil and heat to 350 degrees (if you don't have a thermometer, drop a piece of batter in and when it rises immediately it is ready)
- Add pieces of chicken one at a time
- Cook for 2 minutes, flip and cook for 1 minute
- Remove for oil and rest of 5 minutes
- Return chicken to oil and cook for 1.5 minutes on each side until golden brown
