German Spaetzle Dumplings Recipe

#DressUpYourNuggets 

  I have been lucky to have been chosen this year to be part of the Chik fil A mom club on Facebook where us moms get together and get to share our input about the beloved food chain and occasionally get yummy treats. Recently they gave us a fun challenge to prepare a semi homemade meal using Chick fil A chicken nuggets and by golly I do love me a challenge. So here is how I dressed up my nuggets.

Here's what you need to make super easy German Spaetzle dumplings.  

🐄

▫️Chick fil A grilled or crispy chicken nuggets {optional}

▫️3 cups flour

▫️1/4 teaspoon white pepper

▫️1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

▫️1/2 teaspoon onion powder 

▫️dash of salt 

▫️4 eggs beaten

▫️1 cup milk

▫️2 T butter 

▫️bread crumbs 

Mix your dry ingredients together in a bowl then alternate mixing in the eggs and milk. Use a strainer or Spaetzle maker to drop the dumplings into a large boiling pot of water cook for a few minutes then drain. Now just saute in a pan with the butter and sprinkle with about 1/4 cup bread crumbs and serve topped with Chick fil A nuggets already cooked to perfection. I also really love this recipe with sausage links.

  Also it helps to have a Spaetzle maker. I finally found one on Amazon here . Don't fear if you don't have one though, you can use a metal strainer with larger holes and push the dumpling mixture through with a spoon it just takes more effort.
