When my husband was little his favorite food was his great grandmother’s chicken nuggets. He has described these as magical although he later found out they were frozen chicken fingers from the store! I am not a frozen chicken nugget kind of person and all the talk about pink slime didn’t really help. Once I discovered that pretty much anything baked and covered in breadcrumbs tasted awesome, I was super excited to try this recipe. I didn’t make any changes from the original but I did use fresh parmesan cheese and Italian style breadcrumbs. People swear by Panko bread crumbs but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Aldi brand breadcrumbs. If you don’t shop at Aldi, you are really missing out! I served these with ketchup and ranch on the side with rice and a salad. They are super easy to make but I was surprised how long it took me to bread all the chicken pieces.
