Step-by-step
- Put the chicken in a food processor with the ginger, garlic, fennel seeds, cinnamon, curry powder and turmeric. Season and blend until fairly smooth.
- Turn out the mixture on to a clean work surface and divide into 12 equal portions. Roll each one into a little ball and flatten slightly to make nuggets.
- Spray a large non-stick frying pan with low calorie cooking spray and place over a medium heat. Fry the nuggets for 6-7 minutes or until nicely browned, turning halfway (you may need to do this in batches).
- Eat straight away with lemon wedges to squeeze over. You can also cool and keep them in the fridge for up to 2 days, enjoying them cold or thoroughly reheated.
