Homemade Chicken Nuggets Recipe

These were very good and tender! I didn't want to use all of that butter, so I used two beaten eggs mixed with a splash of olive oil. I was running short on Parm so I used half the amount. Served with Honey mustard dressing- very tasty!

I reviewed this one a few years back...still making these today. Do what a reviewer below suggests and use panko crumbs plus bake on a rack. I turn them 3/4 through for even browning. I also add pressed garlic to the butter for extra yummy flavor.

these were great! Very tasty and crisp and much better than fried. I used a beaten egg to get the batter to stick rather than melted butter for a lower fat content.

I made some slight changes to seasoning. I added 1tsp garlic powder, 2t dried parsley, ½ t fresh ground pepper. Reduced basil to ½ t. I also used plain panko crumbs. As someone else suggested I put butter in a large ziploc and crumbs in another and shook them to coat and places on parchment lined cookie sheet. When I took them out of the oven I sprinkled with sea salt. Delicious!

I really liked the recipe. I did everything except the cheese due to an allergy. It had a really good taste and I can't wait to make it again. Baking these did not work. I did bake them, but the chicken never turned a "golden" color and the breading came off. I ended up cooking it over the stove top and it had a better crisp to it then the oven. I will for sure make these again but over the stove top.

I use egg instead of butter. Then I double dip and coat and in between put in the fridge. Bread crumbs stay on better that way. I use ground chicken and mix in Parm and salt and pepper and herbs.

First time my toddler actually ate the chicken I gave him! Win! I followed the breading recipe, soaked the chicken tenders in milk with a bit of white vinegar (or you could use buttermilk) for about 10 mins and then dipped into the breading. Sprayed breaded chicken with canola spray and baked at 400F on a raised grate on a foil-covered cookie sheet for 20-25 mins. The tenders were not crispy as I had hoped, but they were a win for my 16 month old. May try a bit of panko next time instead of all seasoned bread crumbs.

This recipe is fantastic! I did follow another comment and use egg to dip the chicken into. I made a huge batch and put some in the air fryer (they cooked really quick), some in the oven, and some on the stove in a bit of oil. All were good, but the ones fried on the stove were the most moist. (Go figure--but then they wouldn't be baked.) My whole family LOVED them and my husband kept saying that they were gourmet!! I wouldn't go that far, but I will definitely be making these again. Thanks for the great recipe!

This is a pretty good recipe for nuggets. I used panko crumbs and added some cayenne to make spicy nuggets and they came out great.

Loved this recipe and so did my 12yr old. I bought the chicken already cut. It was so easy and delicious. I used bread crumbs from Whole Foods they have no sugar or corn syrup added. Dipped in the butter and then the breadcrumbs. I seasoned them myself and then baked with a little bit of olive oil on wax paper. And turned them after 20 mins and the were nice and crispy. No more Perdue chicken Nuggets!!! Thanks All Recipes for this one!

Fantastic nuggets that my McDonald's loving son couldn't get enough of! Followed the suggestion and used a beaten egg. Also swapped out regular bread crumbs for panko. Made these twice now and will be adding it to our cooking repertoire.

We had these for lunch today. Super easy, not much of a mess. The flavor was perfect. I ate them right out of then oven and used a fork so I was initially disappointed they weren't more like finger-food. But, when I went back for a few more, the ones that were left to rest on the sheet could be picked up with my fingers and popped right into my mouth.

Made this for my family and everyone loved them. Baked for exactly 20 minutes as stated and they were so tender and juicy. The only change I made was based on reading some previous reviews; I used a mixture of olive oil and ranch dressing instead of the butter. Otherwise followed the recipe to a T. Thank you for such a deliciously easy recipe!

This was very easy to make and tasted great!

I didn't change recipe

It was so good and I have a rose toy

Tasted like something from a café.

Made it for my book club — everyone asked for the recipe.

This recipe deserves a standing ovation.

I've been making this recipe for a couple of years.. It's very easy to pull it together & baking it makes it a wonderful meal for us.. I use ''dry parmesan'' instead of grated. I also shake the nuggets in a plastic bag instead of a dish.. It's seasoned well & my husband loves them.. I make a dipping sauce that's very similar to what I get with ''take-out'' nuggets.. We eat a lot of chicken, so it's nice to have various recipes.
