Does anyone have a good recipe for home made healthy chicken nuggets for the kids?

I use chicken breast chopped into chunks then roll in flour, egg and breadcrumbs and then bake in the oven.





They are healthy and taste much better than shop bought ones.Does anyone have a good recipe for home made healthy chicken nuggets for the kids?
Check out the back of a box of bisquick. There is a recipe for baked chicken nuggets.Does anyone have a good recipe for home made healthy chicken nuggets for the kids?
MY secret nuggets...enjoy!





1/2 stick unsalted butter


2 garlic cloves minced


1 cup fine fresh bread crumbs


1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese


1 whole boneless skinless breast cut into 1-inch cubes





Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.


In a small saucepan melt butter with the garlic and let the mixture cool. In a shallow bowl or pie plate toss the crumbs with the Parmesan. Dip the chicken cubes first in the butter and then in the bread crumb mixture, making sure that each cube is coated well with crumbs. Arrange the chicken in one layer on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked through. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Baked Chicken Nuggets





3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts


1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs


1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese


1 teaspoon salt


1 teaspoon dried thyme


1 tablespoon dried basil


1/2 cup butter, melted


DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).


Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2 inch size pieces. In a medium bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, cheese, salt, thyme and basil. Mix well. Put melted butter/margarine in a bowl or dish for dipping.


Dip chicken pieces into the melted butter/margarine first, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Place well coated chicken pieces on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer, and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Use Shake and Bake for the Chicken Nuggets. Just cut up some bite sized boneless chicken and follow the directions on the box. They come out really good and it is fairly inexpensive.
