Homemade Chicken Nuggets

The best homemade chicken nugget recipe, EVER!

Do your kids eat chicken nuggets?

My kids fight over these! In the amount of time it takes you to preheat your oven, these super fast, homemade chicken “nuggets” could be made. Not only are they healthier than processed chicken, they are so moist that you will enjoy them as well! Feel free to cut the chicken breasts into thinner strips to make them look more “kid friendly.”

To make this a MealDiva approved meal, serve them with a side of Sweet Potato Fries.
