A healthy and homemade version of every kid’s favorite protein: Chicken Nuggets! We use storebought shredded chicken from Aldi, beaten egg and shredded mozzarella to form these delicious nugs! I’ve baked and air-fried them and both ways are tasty and moist. These homemade chicken nuggets go great on top of a salad or on the side with veggies too.
Ingredients:
Shredded and chopped chicken breast – 1 beaten egg (may only use half of it depending on your portion of chicken) – 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella
Chop up your shredded chicken then stir in 1/2 – 1 whole beaten egg and the shredded mozzarella. Form into “nugs” on a parchment or tinfoil lined baking sheet. Bake or air-fry on 375 degrees for 10 minutes per side or until desired degree of doneness. You could make in bulk and freeze after they’ve been cooked. Pull out and reheat for a convenient and quick healthy meal!
