Abstract

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of varying levels of Irish potato (Solanumtuberrosum) powder (Fillant) on composition and sensory attributes of chicken nuggets. Chicken nuggets were prepared from chicken with 0, 15 and 30% inclusion levels of irishpotato powder (IPP) in a Completely Randomized Design. The minced chicken meat was mixed with different levels of IPP, mixed spices before dipped into a bowl of beaten liquid egg, and coated with bread crumbs. It was then fried for about 5-10 minutes to golden brown color. Twenty six panelists evaluated the sensory quality attributes using five (5) point hedonic scale. Data collected from the experiment were analyzed for (ANOVA). The panelist rated the nugget for the overall acceptability of the chicken nugget with 15% PP higher (2.23), followed by the control (2.0) and least was the nugget with 30% PP (1.92). The study recommends inclusion of up to 15% PP in chicken nuggets as filler.
