Lynn's Beer Battered Frog Nuggets

3 pounds Frog legs, with meat cut off the bone in 1-1/2 inch chunks
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup beer
salad oil

In a large bowl, stir together flour, paprika, salt, and pepper with a wire whisk. Gradually whisk in beer, blending until smooth.
In a deep pan, heat 2 inches of oil 350ºF on a deep-frying thermometer. Place meat pieces in a batter and stir to coat. Using tongs, lower about 8 pieces, one at a time, into oil. Cook until meat in center is no longer pink when slashed (about 4 minutes). If nuggets stick together while cooking, gently break apart with the side of a spoon. Lift nuggets from oil with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels, and keep warm. Repeat with remaining pieces.
Serve with warm sauces for dipping. Sour Cream-Dijon sauce
