Wait, what? Chicken nuggets that are crunchy, and not bad for you? And they’re made with Rice Krispies?
I promise, your eyes do not deceive you.
Start with a pound of boneless skinless chicken breasts, and cut them into small strips about one to one and a half inches in size, then preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
Combine an egg, 1/8 cup ranch dressing, and 1 tablespoon of water in a bowl. In another bowl, mix together 2 cups Rice Krispies, 1 teaspoon of seasoned salt, 1/4 teaspoon of minced garlic, and 1/4 cup shredded cheese in your favorite variety… I used a mixture of cheddar and mozzarella because it’s what I had on hand.
Dip your chicken in the egg mixture, then coat with the Rice Krispie/Cheese mixture. Place it in a single layer on a cookie sheet and bake at 450 for 12 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink.
It’s cheesy. It’s chicken-y. It’s amazing, and it should be your dinner tonight. Just saying.
