Chicken nuggets are a favourite with kids, but admit it.. you love them too!

These crispy nuggets are oven baked instead of fried, and made with chicken breast meat, so they’re a healthier option. Plus they’re deliciously tender and perfectly crisp.

Once cooked and cooled, the chicken nuggets can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
