Make your own Chicken Nuggets.




3-8-2011
 I made these tonight and i did it a little different, instead of the butter, i used Mayo, and WOW, thank you AMBER!!  I honeslty recommend making these for your family they are simple and sooo tasty! My kids love them, and there is no fillers its pure white meat chicken. The Home Made breadcrumbs Make it great!


I thank my Mother for this one! however i did change it a tad... she had a shake n bake type thing and these bad boys are made from scratch. 2 chicken breasts yields...32 (small) nuggets. You will not be disappointed and neither will your children these are WONDERFUL!
Here is what you will need:

2 chicken breasts
4 pieces of bread
garlic, thyme, basil, salt pepper
1 tbl butter melted
1 1/2 cap of oil
BBQ sauce

Breading: toast your bread in the oven or toaster- and then crush into fine pieces.. add 1 tsp of garlic powder..salt..pepper and then 1/2 tsp of thyme, you could also add 1/2 cup of parmesan (i didn't tonight)
cut your thawed chicken breasts into chunks.. cutting out the fat and veins (save) take 1 tbl spoon melted butter pour over your chicken chunks and mix.. and then dip in your bread crumb and then onto a cookie sheet that has roughly 1 1/2 capfuls of oil on it- Oven should be preheated to 425- these cook for about 20 minutes you will want to flip them half way through.

Tonight i used the fat and nasties to make a gravy for my mashed potato's and green beans.

Anyways really pleased with these i hope that you guys will try this and enjoy!

  3. I make a pretty good nugget/tender too. Dip in Mayo, then seasoned Panko crumbs. Then bake. Delicious :) I am goin to try yours too. I've never tried it with butter(my weakness).

  4. Mayo - i think i would try that next time Amber- Butter was just what i could come up with when i made these that night, i think milk or water would of worked too. OH and do i love Panko crumbs!!
