Expert Tips

Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.

Serve these nuggets with barbecue sauce, honey mustard or sweet-and-sour dipping sauce for a real treat.

Make dipping easy: Use one hand for butter dipping and dropping chicken into cereal mixture, then the other hand for cereal dipping and turning.

Made these for my daughter who has Celiac. She liked them. I thought they were a little to salty for my taste. But good all around. Will make again.

I've found that if you take the small skinless/boneless pieces of chicken breast, add a few spices, like season-all, a dash of cumin, dried garlic, put in a bowl, and grind with a hand blender, then shallow fry as normal, the texture of the nuggets will be more like the fast food ones. But much healthier. You don't have to add all those spices, it's just how I and my children prefer it.
