Crunchy Oven Baked Chicken Nuggets with Honey Mustard Sauce

First things first, let’s get those taste buds buzzing and the cooking adventures rolling! Gather around as we whip up these crunchy oven-baked nuggets that will make you question all the nugget decisions of your life. Who needs a drive-thru when you can be the nugget king (or queen) right at home?

Ingredients

1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into nugget-sized pieces
1 cup breadcrumbs (because we need that crunch magic)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (for that cheesy goodness)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (you’ll want to ward off vampires too)
1 teaspoon onion powder (because onions make everything better)
Salt and pepper to taste (don’t skip the tasting part!)
2 large eggs (to help things stick together, just like glue)
1/4 cup flour (because nuggets need to roll in something before baking)
Honey mustard sauce for dipping (your new best friend)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (or about 204°C for those not on the Fahrenheit train).
Get a three-bowl setup going: One for flour, one for eggs (whisked, of course), and one for breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Take each chicken piece, coat it in flour, dip it in the egg (because who doesn’t love a little bath), and then roll it in the crispy breadcrumb mixture.
Place the nuggets onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (trust me, it’s a game-changer for cleanup).
Pop those beauties in the oven for around 20-25 minutes or until they’re golden brown and cooked through. Flip them halfway to ensure an even tan.
While they’re baking, create wondrous honey mustard sauce by mixing equal parts honey and mustard in a bowl. Pro tip: adjust the sweetness to your heart’s desire.
Once the nuggets are out and begging to be devoured, dunk them into the honey mustard sauce and enjoy the explosion of flavors!

Celebrate your nugget victory with friends, family, or even solo - because who wouldn’t want to treat themselves? Now, get ready to munch, crunch, and maybe make a mess. Happy baking!
