Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Ground Chicken Breast
  • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1.5 tsp. Salt
  • 1 tsp. Pepper
  • 1.5 cups Seasoned Panko Bread Crumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Mix together the chicken, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  • Scoop chicken out with a tablespoon and form the chicken into nugget shapes. Roll in the bread crumbs. Repeat until you've made about 16-18 chicken nuggets.
  • Put the chicken nuggets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Spray the parchment with cooking spray. Lay down the nuggets then spray the top of the nuggets with cooking spray.
  • Cook the nuggets for 12 minutes then turn the oven to broil and crisp them up for the last 2-3 minutes. Watch them so they do not burn.

Air Fryer Instructions

  • Air fry nuggets at 375 degrees for 7-8 minutes. Be sure to spray the basket and the tops of the nuggets with cooking spray. Internal temperature of the nuggets should be 165 degrees.

These chicken nuggets can be frozen before cooking for later use. See my instructions in the post above!
