Making Chicken McNuggets at home AND The Sweet & Sour Sauce

Obviously, McDonald's Chicken McNuggets are a universally loved food item. What does it take to make them? I decided to find out the hard way by making a batch myself. Of course, you must have dipping sauces for this so I made the Sweet and Sour as well. That is WAY easier than you'd think and the recipe was a little tricky to come by. THERE IS NO MUSTARD IN THE SAUCE!!! Enjoy!
