Your kids will love this healthy version of chicken nuggets.
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 pounds boned and skinned chicken breasts (8 halves)
- 1 cup nonfat buttermilk
- 1 1/2 cups cornflake crumbs
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°.

- Spray or lightly brush the bottom of the pan with half the oil.
- Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry with paper towels.

- Dip each piece of chicken first in the buttermilk then in the cornflake crumbs. Place the coated chicken into the prepared baking pan.

- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°.
