I am always on the hunt for an easy, kid-friendly recipe! These easy cheesy chicken nuggets are a big hit in our house. I think I like them more than our kids. (No exaggeration there! They are great!)
Ingredients:
1 box cheese-it crackers
4 Chicken Breasts
Directions:
Cut up about 2-4 chicken breasts (depending on how many people you will be serving) into bite size pieces & set to the side.
In a ziplock baggie, crush up about 1/2 of a box of cheeze-it crackers (I used a rolling pin, after letting the air out of the baggie)
Dip the raw chicken bites into oil (I use olive or canola)
Take the chicken out of the oil & put them into the crushed up cheeze-its.
Coat the oiled chicken bites with the cheese-it crackers or any type of cheese cracker- they make several organic kinds if you would rather that (I just left them in the bag & threw the chicken in and shook it & repeated this until I used all of the chicken.)
Sprinkle the remaining crushed up cheeze-its on the cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with salt when they come out of the oven, if desired.
Serve with a vegetable tray & Enjoy your easy cheesy chicken nuggets!!

Hmmm…those sound interesting. I have one child who likes Cheez-its and one who does not so I am not sure how much the recipe would go over here. I am always looking to add a little variety though and do usually have a box of those crackers in our pantry.

To be honest, they don’t even taste cheesy, just good! 🙂
I am posting a new link in a few minutes (after I finish baking them) on sausage balls & brownies. Its nap time in our house (cooking time for mom!)
Have a great day!

I bet these turned out great with the cheese crackers. I am going to have to try them on my Grandson.
