BAKED Crispy Chicken Nuggets
Makes 6 Servings
Ingredients
• 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts weighing about 6 oz. each
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml of oat bran
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml of wheat germ
• 1 Tbsp / 15 ml coarsely ground flaxseed
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml coarsely ground almonds
• 1/2 tsp / 2 1/2 ml sea salt
• 1/2 tsp / 2 1/2 ml white pepper
• Pinch garlic powder
• 1/2 cup / 120 ml water or low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 Degrees F. Prepare baking sheet by lining with parchment
paper or coating lightly with best-quality olive oil.
2. Cut chicken breasts into nugget-sized pieces, about
1.5 inches square. Set aside.
3. Next, combine all dry ingredients in a large container
with a tightly fitting lid. Shake well. This is your coating
mixture.
4. Combine water and egg in a medium bowl. Dip each
piece in the water/egg-white mixture. Then dip each piece
in the coating mixture. Make sure each piece is well
coated.
5. Place on the baking sheet. When all of your chicken
has been coated and your baking sheet is full, place in
the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden.
