Real Chicken Nuggets

Finally I am posting! I haven't tried this recipe yet but mean to soon. I wonder how would taste with turkey? Hmmm
1 cup fine, dry breadcrumbs
1 tblsp Parmesian cheese, grated
1 tsp crumbled dried oregano or Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tblsp vegetable oil
1.5 lbs boneless skinless, chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2 inch chunks
Preheat oven to 400F. Lightly grease cookie sheet with veg oil or spray on non-stick oil.
In a plastic bag combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesian cheese, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Shake to mix.
In a small bowl, combine the chicken chunks and vegetable oil and stir enough to coat the chicken evenly. Add the chicken pieces, 2 or 3 at a time into the crumb mixture in the plastic bag and shake well to evenly coat the chicken. Remove and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, turning once after 10 minutes so that they bake evenly.

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup mustard, regular or flavoured
Stir honey and mustard together in a small bowl. Tast and adjust with more honey or mustard. Makes half a cup.

If you try this before I do, lmk how it turns out.

I actually made this recipe last night! It turned out really good. I used crotons instead of bread crumbs (crushed them with a rolling pin). They made coating nice and crispy.
I also made the honey mustard sauce, which Jack loved!
This will be a favourite dinner from now on!
