Quick, easy, and way healthier than the ones you buy at McDonald's (but just as tasty!) These are great for an afternoon snack, so if you're hungry, get cookin'!
To make 20 chicken nuggets, you need:
-2 boneless, skinless medium-sized chicken breasts
-1 egg
-1 cup store-bought breadcrumbs, plain
-1 tsp oregano
-salt & pepper
-any other seasoning you like (mixed Italian herbs are tasty)
-olive oil spray (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into small chunks ("nugget" shaped).
Crack egg in small bowl and lightly beat with fork. In a second bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, oregano, salt, pepper and any other seasoning you like. Take each nugget and dip in egg making sure to cover completely. Then, roll nuggets in breadcrumb mixture until fully coated. Place on lightly greased baking sheet and spray each nugget with a little olive oil. This will make the nuggets extra crispy...and trick you into thinking they are fried! (By the way, if you skip this step, the nuggets will turn out fine). Bake for 18 minutes, cool, and serve with ketchup or dipping sauce of your choice. These will go fast, so get 'em while they last!
