Both adults and adventurous kids will love these spicy chicken nuggets. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.
Ingredients
1-1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1-1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper, optional
1/4 cup butter, melted
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°. In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, cheese and, if desired, chipotle pepper. Place butter in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken pieces in butter, then in crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere.
Place chicken in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan; sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture. Bake 20-25 minutes or until no longer pink.
