Home Made Chicken Nuggets

Super amazing nuggets that I make occasionally guys! 
Probably not the healthiest of things - but certainly healthier than getting McDonalds or KFC nuggets by a long shot! 
Personally - I think these taste better too!
Bear in mind these aren't a 'quick' whip up meal, there is a bit of prep work involved.


2 Chicken breasts or suitable amount of chicken tenders
1 Egg
Milk (dash of)
Plain Flour
Bread Crumbs
Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Garlic (granules or crushed - whatever you have on hand)
Parsley (I just used the dried stuff from the herb isle)
Sesame Seeds


Most of this is a 'preferred taste' method, but I'll give estimates. 
Take 3 shallow dishes, whisk egg and milk together in one. Place a few tablespoons of plain flour in another and then combine the seasonings with the bread crumbs in another.
Cut chicken into nugget sized pieces. Dip and coat in flour, then dunk in egg and then dip and coat in crumb mixture - making sure pieces are well coated. Set aside and repeat with all pieces (told you it's not the quickest of preps).
Heat large fry pan, spray with oil (or drizzle with oil) and cook nuggets, flatten with egg flip/potato masher to help cook evenly.


I like to serve with ranch sauce or aoli, although depends on how much garlic you put in the crumbs!


They are delish! I'm sure kids would love these too! 
So full of flavour.

Enjoy.
