A simple recipe to make and enjoy for lunch, snack, and even dinner.  Today is a bit of a busy day, so I don’t have much time in the kitchen.  I needed to make something quick, tasty, and these chicken nuggets were the best option.     🙂

BITE SIZE CHICKEN NUGGETS (KOTOBOUKIES)

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Chicken Breasts
  • 3 medium Eggs
  • 2 cups Breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup Pecorino or Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 tablespoons Basil
  • 1 tablespoon Oregano Optional

Instructions
 

  • Add into the breadcrumbs the ingredients except for the cheese and mix.
  • Add in the cheese and combine.
  • In a large bowl beat the eggs. Then start dipping the chicken pieces into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs.
  • I prepared my chicken nuggets and have placed in the fridge for a few hours. I oven bake the chicken nuggets, so in order for them not to stick to the bottom of your baking dish, either grease or use baking paper.
  • Bake at 200 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with a nice dip and enjoy.

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
