Baked chicken nuggets

Baked chicken nuggets

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken thighs, boneless, in pieces
  • 4 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 6 tbsp breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp mild paprika
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Contains: Wheat, Egg

Method

  1. Dip the chicken in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs mixed with paprika.
  2. Lay on an oiled tray and bake at 200 °C for 18 minutes, turning once, until golden and cooked through.
  3. Cool; cut one open to check.
Safety: Cooked right through, with no pink. Cool before serving — the inside stays hot much longer than the outside.
Storage: Freeze uncooked; bake from frozen with 5 extra minutes.
Tip: Shop nuggets are half coating and a lot of salt. These are chicken.
