Easy Baked Chicken Nuggets (made With Canned Chicken!)
  1. Preheat oven to 425° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Open and drain the canned chicken. Remove as much excess moisture as possible by placing it in a fine mesh strainer and squishing out the water with your fingers.

  3. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the drained chicken with the egg, mozzarella, parmesan, and any seasoning you like, however I DO NOT recommend adding salt. Just a little garlic powder and black pepper should do! Smoked paprika is a good choice, too.

  4. Use your hands to mold the chicken mixture together into small bite-size nuggets. I made mine using about a heaping tbsp each and ended up with 12 nuggets.

  5. Bake for 18-22 minutes, flipping them over half way through.

  6. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce! I really like the Ray's no sugar added bbq sauce or ranch dressing.
