Description

These chicken nuggets get extra flavor from a crispy herb-and-Parmesan crust. They’re not just for kids! Serve with your favorite dipping sauces.

• 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

• 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 1 tablespoon dried basil

• 1 teaspoon dried thyme

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup butter, melted

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2 Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2-inch pieces.

3 Mix bread crumbs, Parmesan, basil, thyme, and salt together well in a medium bowl. Put melted butter in a bowl or dish for dipping.

4 Dip chicken pieces into the melted butter first, then coat with the bread crumb mixture.

5 Place the well-coated chicken nuggets on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer.

6 Bake nuggets in the preheated oven until browned and chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.

7 Serve and enjoy!
