Assembly Directions:

Mix sauce ingredients together well with a wire whisk, mixer or spoon.   Cut chicken breasts into nuggets.  Place all of the chicken pieces in the sauce and stir well to coat.  Place coating in a plastic bag, bowl or other container with a lid.  Place about 18 nuggets into coating mixture.  Seal bag or container and shake well to coat pieces.  Repeat until all nuggets are coated.  Place nuggets on spray-treated or greased baking sheets and bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes, turning once.  Remove from oven and cool on baking sheets.

 

Freezing and Serving Directions:

When cool, place trays of nuggets in freezer and freeze until firm.  Place frozen nuggets in freezer bags or rigid containers.  Label and freeze.

To serve, place frozen nuggets on a baking sheet and reheat at 400° for 5-10 minutes until sizzling and hot.

 

Freezing Time: 3-4 months

 

Comments:

These have so many great uses!  Our kids love them.  To make them lower in fat, use skim milk and diet ranch dressing.  You’ll never miss the fat!
