Renowned chefs Nick DiGiovanni from the USA and Lynn Davis from Japan are known for creating larger-than-life food items, and this time they have stunned the world with their largest ever chicken nugget. The duo has secured their name in the Guinness Book of World Records.


What was the recipe for making the 46-pound nugget?

Nick and Lynn shared the whole process of creating the largest chicken nugget in their YouTube video. In the video, they are first seen tossing over 40 slices of bread and later mashing them up with the help of half a gallon of milk.

Being an enormous dish, the ingredients had to be colossal in quantity. Hence, the following was added:

  • 40 eggs
  • 18 Kgs of chicken
  • ¾ cup onion powder
  • ¾ cup garlic powder
  • 1 cup salt
  • ½ cup black pepper

The process, otherwise being simple, was a bit complex as the quantities were huge, and the mixing took time. Blending the ingredients, the duo added the mix to a large tray and later shifted it to a commercial oven to cook for some time. Halfway through it, they pulled out the chicken nugget to coat it with one final layer of breadcrumbs to make it crispy.

Not only were the ingredients’ quantity humongous, but the tools used to whisk the ingredients together were also immensely mighty.

The video shows it being inspected, weighed, and later declared the world’s largest chicken nugget. The almost 9-minute-long video has received over 13 million views and 77,000 likes in just three days.
