While you are making your kids get ready for the school and at the same time your man is shouting from the bathroom door for the towel, it is virtually impossible to prepare breakfast for kids. Most kids usually do not like to have breakfast for some reasons. However, they do feel like eating something in school during the break time. Baked Chicken Nuggets can be prepared quickly and efficiently in such a situation.

Ingredients

Skinless chicken breasts - 3
Italian seasoned bread crumbs – 1
Grated Parmesan cheese – ½ cup
Salt – 1 teaspoon
Dried thyme – 1 teaspoon
Dried basil – 1 tablespoon
Melted butter – ½ cup

Instructions

To start up, first of all wash the Chicken breasts thoroughly with cold water and pat with a blotting or tissue paper so that it dries in quick time.
After washing the chicken breasts, cut them into 1 ½ -inch size with a sharp knife making sure that they are not under or over-sized.
Mix together the bread crumbs, cheese, salt, thyme and basil in a medium bowl and blend together thoroughly to avoid lumps.
In a bowl or dish put the melted butter and dip chicken pieces into it followed by coating it with the prepared breadcrumb mixture.
Arrange the well-coated chicken pieces in a single layer on a mildly greased cookie sheet or tray and put them in the oven for 20 minutes that should be preheated to 400 degrees F.
