Healthy Baked Chicken Nuggets for Kids and Adults
Ingredients
– 1 lb Chicken Tenders
– 1/2 Light Coconut Milk
– 3/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
– 1/3 cup Grated Parmesan
Salt & Pepper
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil (or parchment paper).
2. Cut up chicken tenders into nugget size (or any size you like).
3. Put chicken and coconut milk in bowl or ziploc bag and put in refrigerator for at least 15 minutes (up to 3 hours).
4. Toast Panko in 375 oven for 6 minutes or until golden (or you can do it in the toaster, but watch that it doesn’t burn). Cool it and place in bowl. Add parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
5. Remove piece of chicken from coconut milk and less excess milk drip off. Dip the chicken in the panko mixture until coated on all sides. Place on baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken pieces.
6. Put in oven for at least 12 minutes (I usually do 15) or until it looks really golden and crispy.
