I posted this recipe a couple of years ago, but thought it deserved another shout out. I have a very picky daughter. She has never been a good eater! She literally almost starved herself when she was born cause she couldn't be bothered to wake up and eat. Thus began the food battle with her. She will not touch any vegetable or fruit. If there is even a speck of either on her plate, she will not eat the carbs or meat she has agreed to try. We can usually trick her into eating her meat by letting her pretend to be a dinosaur at the dinner table, otherwise,she is strictly a carbs and junk food girl! Tonight we are having a delicious veggie soup for dinner. My daughter will get these homemade chicken nuggets. My kids love chicken nuggets and I love these because I know how they were made. I'm not a huge fan of the processed stuff. So this post is for you, Tess. I hope someday you at least taste a strawberry:)
1 cup or so of seasoned breadcrumbs
5 or so tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 egg
Splash of water
2-3 tbsp of butter, melted
1-2 chicken breasts, cut into smaller pieces
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a shallow dish, whisk together egg and water. In a separate dish combine breadcrumbs and cheese. Place chicken in egg wash and coat chicken pieces, then coat in breadcrumbs, turning chicken to make sure it is covered. Place prepared chicken on greased baking sheet and drizzle each piece with some melted butter.
Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes depending on how large or small your chicken pieces are. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. (These freeze really well too!)
