These low-calorie chicken nuggies are a healthier and tastier alternative to fast-food versions, boasting 6g protein, 2g fat, and 0.25g carbs per nugget. Made with lean ground chicken and a crispy cornflake coating.
1. Mix lean ground chicken with mustard and the initial set of spices (1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cayenne, 2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp salt, 2 tsp pepper).
2. Form the mixture into 15 or more equally sized nuggets. Wet your hands to prevent sticking.
3. Blend 1 cup of corn flakes with 1 tsp onion powder and 1 tsp paprika to create the coating mixture. Coat each nugget thoroughly in this mixture.
4. Place the coated nuggets on a baking tray, preferably lined with parchment paper to soak up liquids, and spray lightly with cooking spray.
5. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10-14 minutes.
6. For extra crispiness, broil on high for an additional 1-2 minutes.
7. Enjoy!
