Ingredients
Yield: 4 servings
- 1 (8.5-ounce) bag Kettle Brand® chips, any flavor
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 eggs
Method
Warm oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper*; keep nearby.
Tip in the chips to a food processor and pulse until they are finely crumbled. (Or alternately, you can use a rolling pin to crush the chips while they are still in their bag.) move the crumbled chips to a small bowl.
Beat the eggs in a separate small bowl.
Then it's time to assemble the nuggets! Dip one nugget in the egg mixture with your right hand until it is completely coated, then move it to the bowl with the chips. Then use your left hand to carefully coat the chicken with the chips on all sides, pressing them lightly on the chicken to help them stick. Take your left hand to move the chicken nugget to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken. (This right/left-hand method helps prevent the chips from sticking to your
Roast for 12 minutes (the top coating of the nuggets should be nice and crispy). Then remove from the oven, flip the nuggets, and bake for 8 more minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (to an internal temperature of 165°F) and no longer pink inside.
Lift from the oven and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
