The best chicken nuggets you will ever have – crisp-tender and completely homemade with Parmesan goodness!
I hope you all had a great Christmas holiday! We stuffed ourselves with turkey, ham, sweet potato casserole, creamed corn, Korean BBQ, and Filipino spaghetti, while Butters sat around in his awesome yet very tight-fitting Santa suit.
But now that the holidays are over, I can finally share these epic chicken nuggets. Although chicken nuggets can really be eaten any time of the year, any time of the day – breakfast, lunch, dinner, midnight snack – you name it.
You just can’t say no to chicken nuggets, especially when they’re cooked to absolute crisp-perfection, loaded with that freshly grated Parmesan. And it’s sure to bring out the kid in you as you dunk these bad boys in ketchup and honey mustard!
