I know, I know, one hears the dreaded word fiber and immediately thinks “old head” but trust me, Fiber One is where it’s at! If you’ve never had it, you don’t know what you’re missing! It’s good for you of course but it’s actually good too! It has a slightly sweet taste - not sugary, just the perfect hint of sweetness. Makes for one great bowl of cereal, or, in this case, an awesome breading for chicken!
- 1 lb chicken breasts, cut into about 2 - 3 inch chunks
- 2 cups Fiber One cereal
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tbs Good Seasons dry Italian dressing mix
- 2 eggs
- salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 375.
Crack eggs into a bowl.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Place Fiber One in food processor and pulse until fine. Mix with breadcrumbs, Italian dressing mix, salt and pepper on a large plate.
Dip chicken in egg, then dry mixture until evenly coated. Transfer to baking sheet.
Bake nuggets for about 15 minutes or until internal temperature reads 155 – 160.
Serve with honey mustard dipping sauce. You can use store bought or make your own simply by mixing honey and mustard together – 2 parts honey, 1 part mustard. I like to use a combination of yellow and whole grain mustards.
We served these up along side frozen spinach that we doctored up by adding the zest and juice of 1 lemon, a bit of crumbled goat cheese, salt and pepper.
