Ingredients Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
6 Oz. Almonds
2. Add almonds to a food processor. Pulse repeatedly until the almonds are finely ground.
1 tsp Salt, or more to taste
3. Add the ground almonds into a small bowl, along with the salt, smoked paprika, black pepper and garlic powder. Whisk to
1 tsp smoked paprika combine. Taste, and season with extra salt and pepper or seasonings if desired. (This will be the main flavoring for your nuggets, so
make sure it tastes like you want it to!)
1 Τ tsp garlic powder

4. In a second bowl, whisk together the egg and water (or milk) until combined.
1 Τ tsp black pepper

5. In a third bowl, add the flour.
1 egg 6. Now set up your assembly line for coating the chicken nuggets — (1st) chicken, (2nd) flour, (3rd) egg, (4th) almonds, (5th) baking sheet.
1 Τ Cup water or milk 7. Dip a piece of the chicken completely in the flour until it is completely coated, shaking off the excess flour. Then dip the chicken in the
4
egg until completely coated, then dip it in the almond mixture, then place it on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
1 Τ Cup flour

8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, flipping the nuggets once halfway through
680 g. (raw) boneless cooking. (If you want a crispier coating, you can bake the chicken for 6-8 minutes, then turn on the broiler for 1-2 minutes to crisp up
the crust. Just watch the chicken carefully so that the almond crust does not burn, and be sure that the chicken is cooked through on
skinless chicken breasts, bite-sized
the inside.)
cooking spray 9. Remove and serve immediately with your desired dipping sauce.
