Nummy Nuggets



These organic chicken nuggets are always a hit in our house. I must admit, I end up snacking on almost as many of them as the children do.

Ingredients (Makes around 15 small nuggets)
1 Organic Chicken Breast
1 Organic Chicken Thigh
1/2 cup grated cheese (parmesan or cheddar)
1 whole courgette, sliced into pieces
1 onion, sliced in half.
1 organic FR egg
1/4 cup milk
1 cup quinoa flakes
Olive oil for frying (Coconut or Macadamia fine too)

Preheat oven to 200'c fan forced.

In a food processor, combine the chicken, cheese, courgette, and onion until a thick paste forms.
Whisk the egg and milk together in one bowl. In a separate bowl, place the quinoa flakes.

Set the oil heating to moderate-high in a frying pan on the stove.

White it heats, remove approximately teaspoon sized portions of the chicken mix and place it first in the egg, then the quinoa, then the oil.

Fry for around 3 minutes either side (until a light golden brown) then transfer to a baking tray to finish in the oven for approximately 10 - 15 minutes.

I served these with home made potato crisps (finely slice potato and fry in the same oil, once you've removed the nuggets, then top with a small sprinkle of himalayan salt) and some fruit.
