  3. If nuggets are very wet, pat with a paper towel. Place nuggets in plastic ziploc bag and add ranch dressing mix. Seal bag and shake to coat.
  4. Cut raw bacon in half. Wrap nugget tucking in any loose ends to make then as near a ball shape as possible. Crosspin the bacon in place with a toothpick.
  5. Depending on fryer capacity you should add 5-8 nuggets at a time and fry 3 1/2 to 5 minutes until nuggets just begin to float.
  6. Drain on paper towels and cut the largest nugget in half to test doneness or check with thermometer probe (quick response type) and adjust cooking time.
  7. A properly cooked nugget will show bacon done medium and herbed white meat with browned highlights.
