#744: Italian Chicken Nuggets


This was an easy chicken recipe that I made for dinner one night that the girls really enjoyed.  Brian and I enjoyed it too, although it isn't my favorite way to make chicken so I probably won't make this version again.  The taste was good but I didn't love the Italian seasoning (it was a little over-powering).

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized chunks
1 cup of Italian style panko crumbs
1 egg, mixed well
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
Olive oil cooking spray

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a cooling rack inside a baking sheet and coat rack with cooking spray. Cut chicken into large chunks and remove any fat. Mix the egg well in a bowl. Place the panko crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip the chicken into the egg then into the panko, making sure to coat evenly. Place chicken nuggets on top of the rack and spray with olive oil cooking spray. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly and is golden brown. Serve with warm marinara sauce. Enjoy.
