The kids will enjoy these chicken nuggets as much as the adults. You may substitute chicken breasts for the thighs or use a combination of both.
Prep Time: 2 hours, 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 2 hours, 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup prepared ranch dressing
- Salt and pepper
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Additional ranch dressing for dipping
Preparation:
Cut chicken into bite-sized nuggets. Place in a zip-top bag and pour on the ranch dressing. Squeeze out the air, seal, and gently squish chicken around so it is evenly covered with the ranch dressing marinade. Refrigerate for two hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a shallow baking pan with non-stick foil.
Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Remove chicken from the ranch dressing and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roll in bread crumb and cheese mixture until coated. Place on prepared baking pan.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes until golden. Serve ranch chicken nuggets with additional ranch dressing for dipping.
Yield: about 4 servings
