Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients:

2 large chicken breast

3 t olive oil (plus some for pan)

½ c breadcrumbs

2 T grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

         Preheat oven to 425. Cut the chicken breast into nugget size pieces, about 1 inch in size. Grab two bowls; in one bowl add the olive oil. In the other bowl add the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese and mix well. Add the dash of olive oil to a baking sheet and spread evenly to coat.

         Place the chicken pieces into the olive oil and then into the breadcrumb mixture. Cover both sides of the chicken and place onto pan, repeat with all the pieces.

         Place into heated oven, baking each side 6-8 minutes. Enjoy. Serve with a healthy side dish such as a fresh garden salad.

         To mix it up, you can always add some powdered or fresh herbs to the breadcrumb mixture.
