When we were little, mom made chicken nuggets for dinner sometimes. They weren’t the greasy, fried kind; they were baked and perfect for small children. We had chicken and I had a desire for some childhood comfort food. This one, however, comes with paprika; and it’s seriously easy. It hit the spot and I felt like I was 8 again, but with an actual appreciation of spices, and portions.
Ingredients:
- 2 pieces boneless chicken breast
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp Hungarian paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Remove fat and cut thawed chicken into small chunks.
- In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Dip chicken chunks into egg wash, then coat with bread crumb mixture.
- Place chicken chunks into a greased baking dish side-by-side (do not layer).
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 – 12 minutes or until chicken is done. Do not overbake or the chicken will be dry.
