Kids Chicken Veggie Nuggets

Kids Chicken Veggie Nuggets

These puppies were thrown together in a few minutes and cooked to perfection while I got some fruit and a quick salad together to finish the meal. Easy peasy, super healthy, and family-approved…just how we all like it!

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 24 pieces

Ingredients

1 lb ground chicken

2 cups cauliflower florets, steamed

2 cups broccoli, steamed

3 cloves garlic

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 eggs

1 1/2 panko breadcrumbs

1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese

olive oil

Instructions

1. Steam broccoli and cauliflower in a pan with some water for 5-6 minutes to soften up.

2. Place veggies in a food processor with garlic, salt, and pepper. Pulse a couple of times to break up everything.

3. Place veggies, ground chicken, eggs, breadcrumbs, cheese, and mix. Make nugget-sized (2 tablespoons) pieces with wet hands. Place on a tray.

4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with 1-2 tablespoons of oil. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side.

5. Serve with ketchup for kids or, if you’re an adult, with a big salad.
