“This recipe offers a fantastic option for zero-carb chicken nuggets. It’s simple, quick, and incredibly tasty.”

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cooked chicken, firmly packed (you can use cooked chicken breast or thighs)
• 1 egg
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2. Ensure the cooked chicken is cut into smaller pieces, making it easier to process in the food processor.
3. In a food processor, add the firmly packed cooked chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, and crack in the egg.
4. Pulse or process the ingredients in the food processor until they are well combined and form a cohesive mixture. Scrape down the sides of the processor bowl as needed to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
5. Once the mixture has come together, scoop out portions of the mixture and form them into nugget shapes using your hands. The size and shape can be adjusted according to your preference.
6. Place the formed nuggets onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each nugget to allow for even cooking.
7. Bake the nuggets in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes. About halfway through the baking time (around the 12-15 minute mark), carefully flip the nuggets over using tongs or a spatula to ensure both sides are evenly browned and cooked.
8. Continue baking until the nuggets are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
9. Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the nuggets cool for a few minutes before serving.

These homemade chicken nuggets made with chicken, egg, and mozzarella cheese are a flavorful and low-carb option. Enjoy them on their own or with your preferred dipping sauce. Adjust cooking times as needed based on your oven and desired level of crispiness.
