PANKO CHICKEN NUGGETS



Panko Chicken Nuggets image

This is from the Food Network. My kids love chicken nuggets and, by making them myself, I know what's really in them. These are a little less fat too, and can be made even more so by using olive oil or cooking in the oven.

1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
salt and pepper
1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • For those who want to make it healthier fry in extra virgin olive oil just enough to coat. You can also follow the recipe and place the coated nuggets on a cookie sheet and brush with the extra virgin olive oil and put in a 450' degree oven for about 10 minutes on each side. Watch them carefully as you want a golden brown, and, depending on your oven, times may vary. Lowfat buttermilk can also be used.

PANKO CHICKEN NUGGETS (WITH 2 SAUCES)



Panko Chicken Nuggets (With 2 Sauces) image

This recipe is from Martha Stewart. I thought these were going to wind up being a little bland, but they are so tasty! I want to note that the recipe says to bake the Panko for 6-8 minutes, however the first time I did this they turned black and smoked up my kitchen! I am certain my oven was at the recommended temperature (400 degrees) because I have an oven thermometer in there. So, just be sure you use caution and keep a very close eye to avoid burning the life out of your breadcrumbs.
