Ingredients
- 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Cut the chicken breasts into smaller, bite-sized pieces of approximately 1 and a half inches in length.
3
Mix together the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, fresh basil leaves, dried thyme, and a pinch of salt in a medium-sized bowl until well combined.
4
Place the melted butter in a separate, shallow dish or container for dipping purposes.
5
Dip each chicken piece into the melted butter first, followed by a generous coating of the bread crumb mixture.
6
Arrange the well-coated chicken pieces in a single layer on a lightly greased cookie sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
7
Place the chicken nuggets in the preheated oven and bake until they are nicely browned on the outside and cooked through to perfection, approximately 20 minutes.
