Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 20 nuggets

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large egg
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs, white or whole wheat
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup ketchup
1/3 cup packed dark-brown sugar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • For the nuggets: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat the egg in a shallow bowl. Place the panko, garlic powder, Italian herbs and salt in a separate shallow bowl and stir to combine.
  • One at a time, dip the chicken chunks in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs. (Keep one hand dry to help adhere the breadcrumbs to the chicken.) Make sure the chicken chunks are completely coated. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Spray each nugget with nonstick spray. Bake until browned and cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes.
  • For the barbecue sauce: In a small saucepan, stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic and paprika. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with the nuggets.

The chicken nuggets were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less salt.

These baked chicken nuggets were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less cayenne pepper.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken nuggets didn't turn out crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The chicken nuggets were a bit dry, but the barbecue sauce helped to make them more moist. Overall, they were a good meal.

These baked chicken nuggets were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different seasoning.

I'm not a big fan of chicken nuggets, but these baked chicken nuggets were actually really good. The coating was crispy and flavorful, and the chicken was tender and juicy.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy these baked chicken nuggets were to make. I didn't have any panko breadcrumbs, so I used crushed cornflakes instead and they turned out great. The barbecue sauce was also very easy to make and had a great flavor
