Easy Homemade Chicken Nuggets Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts: Cut into nugget-sized pieces.
  • 2 cups potato chips: You can use any flavor you like (plain, BBQ, or sour cream and onion work well).
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour: For dredging the chicken.
  • Two large eggs: Beaten to help the coating stick.
  • Salt and pepper: To taste.
  • Cooking spray or olive oil: For baking.

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
  2. Prepare the Coating: In a food processor or a zip-top bag, crush the potato chips until they are fine crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a shallow bowl.
  3. Dredge the Chicken:
    • Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with crushed potato chips.
    • Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour, dip in the egg, and coat in the potato chips.
  4. Bake the Nuggets: Place the coated chicken nuggets on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the nuggets hot with your Homemade Honey Mustard Sauce for dipping.

Why Baked Over Fried?

Baking the chicken nuggets is a healthier alternative to frying, as it reduces the amount of added oil and calories. You still get that satisfying crunch without the guilt!
