NUGGS

Homemade Chicken Nuggets.

WHAT YOU NEED:
Chicken Breast
Cornflakes
Olive Oil
Spices
Parmesan 
SPICES

RECOMMENDED SPICES:  THYME, sage, garlic powder, pepper, trader joe's everyday seasoning, rosemary, red pepper flakes, fajita seasoning
-like always, get creative... the spices you use can really amp up the chicken nuggets 

WEAPONS OF CHOICE:  cornflake crushing device.  I use my immersion blender (as always) but anything would work... or even buy crushed cornflakes to save time!

Off to the races: 
Cut up the chicken breast (Raw chicken freaks me out.  It's gross and foul looking.  Make faces and pretend you are a surgeon... it makes it more fun).  Cut them into about equal sized/nugget pieces.

Coat the raw chicken breast pieces in olive oil and dip them into the cornflake parm mix. Cover or toss each chicken piece individually and put them on a lightly olive oiled pan.  Bake at 425 for about 8 minutes then flip all the pieces over.  Bake for another 8 minutes and take the nuggets out of the oven. Cut one of the bigger pieces open to make sure it is fully cooked!  Salmonella isn't sexy. 

Mix ketchup and sriracha. Live your dreams.
