Extra Crispy Baked Chicken Nuggets With Honey Mustard Dip Recipes

BAKED CHICKEN NUGGETS WITH HONEY MUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easier cleanup), and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
• To a large, shallow bowl, add the breadcrumbs, parmesan, salt, pepper, and mix to combine; set aside.
• To a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, about 30 seconds on high power.
• Dip chicken in butter, then in crumb mixture, patting to help the coating adhere. Place coated chicken on prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over chicken.
• Bake for about 30 to 33 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through in the center and exterior is lightly golden browned. The bottom sides will become browner than the tops. Cooking time will vary based on exact size of chicken pieces, how heavily the coating was applied, oven and climate variances, etc. Bake until done. While chicken bakes, make the honey mustard dipping sauce.
• To a medium bowl add the honey, mustards, whisk to combine, taste and check for flavor balance, adding more honey or mustard to taste if necessary; set aside until ready to serve with chicken.
• Nuggets are best warm and fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Honey mustard will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F. Pour melted butter in the bottom of a large baking sheet and set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and flour. Dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
• In a resealable plastic bag, combine toasted breadcrumbs, remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, paprika, and Parmesan. Whisk egg whites and 2 tablespoons water in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken pieces in egg white mixture, a few at a time, then transfer to breadcrumb bag, seal and shake until nuggets are coated. Repeat with remaining chicken and place chicken nuggets in a single layer on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake chicken nuggets at 425F 18-20 minutes, flipping nuggets once halfway through baking, until chicken is a deep golden brown.
• Make the honey mustard dip: In a small bowl, whisk all dip ingredients until smooth. Serve with hot chicken nuggets. Enjoy!
