Here's a recipe for delicious homemade chicken nuggets:
Ingredients:
-1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (you can use panko breadcrumbs for extra crispiness)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking oil for frying
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.
3. Season the breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
4. Take each piece of chicken and coat it first in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and finally coat it evenly with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Repeat with all the chicken pieces.
5. Place the coated chicken nuggets on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece.
6. Lightly spray or drizzle the nuggets with cooking oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
7. Bake the chicken nuggets for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
8. Once cooked, remove the chicken nuggets from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
9. Serve the chicken nuggets with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, barbecue sauce, honey mustard, or ranch dressing.
10. Enjoy your homemade chicken nuggets as a delicious snack or part of a meal!
