These tasty nuggets are nothing like the ones that you get a the fast food restaurants. They are juicy on the inside with Swiss cheese and ham and crispy on the outside. These are delicious nuggets for BIG kids, but your little ones just might enjoy them
5 raw chicken breasts
8 oz. Swiss cheese
7.5 oz. sliced ham
6 oz. box chicken stuffing mix, finely ground or Italian style bread crumbs
1/2 c. flour
3 eggs, beaten
1 t. water
butter flavored cooking spray
Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce:
1 T. yellow mustard
1 T. Dijon mustard
1/4 c. honey
1/2 T. lemon juice
1/8 t. onion powder
1/3 c. mayo
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut breasts into 1 1/2 inch squares. If chicken is thick, cut them in half so they are thinner. Slice cheese and ham into 1 inch squares. Sandwich cheese and ham between 2 slices of chicken. Poke a wooden toothpick in the center. The toothpick holds it together when rolling in the flour, egg, and crumb mixtures.
Beat 3 eggs with 1 teaspoon of water. Dip the nugget in the flour mixture, then roll in the beaten egg mixture, then roll in the stuffing crumbs. Set on a greased cookie sheet.
Slide the toothpick carefully out of the nugget after putting it on the cookie sheet. It will stay together. After having dipped all of the nuggets, spray them with butter flavored cooking spray.
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
Dipping sauce:
Mix sauce ingredients together until well blended. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
