Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 lb chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 3 tbsp hot sauce
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 2/3 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425˚F.
  2. Trim any fat off of the chicken, then cut in 1.5" pieces.
  3. Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a dish. In a separate dish, combine the bread crumbs, parmesan, garlic powder and onion powder.
  4. Mix the chicken pieces with the hot sauce mixture until all pieces are evenly coated. Then toss the chicken with the bread crumb mixture.
  5. Lightly grease or spray a baking sheet. Then lay the pieces out on the sheet with at least 1/2 in between each piece. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
  6. Bake for 8-12 minutes total. Start on the lower rack for 4-5 minutes, then move to the upper rack for 4-5 minutes. To help get the chicken nuggets extra crispy, you can broil for the last 2-4 minutes.

Notes

  • This recipe makes about 40 nuggets.
