parmesan baked chicken nuggets

I know it can be really hard to come up with new, fresh dinner ideas all the time–especially ideas your family will all eat. Feels like an impossible task doesn’t it? That’s why recipes like these easy parmesan baked chicken nuggets are a must have. If you want the truth, I like the breading when it falls off the chicken on to the baking sheet and cooks up and gets all crusty.

I secretly scrape it up with a spatula and eat it when no one is looking. I’m a closet breading eater.

You don’t have to make nuggets here either–feel free to cut strips, or bread whole breasts if that’s more your style. These little bits are made tender by the mustard and bake up golden in the oven. And don’t worry if you don’t like mustard–you don’t even know it’s there.
