No-Nonsense Chicken Nuggets
Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups corn flakes
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into nugget-size pieces
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly oil or coat a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- Place the corn flakes in a resealable plastic bag and crush to a fine texture using a rolling pin or the bottom of a small saucepan, or place in a food processor and pulse several turns until finely crushed. Combine with the Parmesan cheese, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper in a medium bowl.
- To bread the chicken, coat in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in the egg, then coat well in the corn flake mixture.
- Arrange the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and cook until golden brown, about 12 minutes.
