Baked Chicken Nuggets

chicken breasts

bread crumbs

buttermilk

lemon

salt

Cut the chicken breast into 2x2 inch pieces.

Place the chicken in a bowl and then pour-in the buttermilk. Squeeze the lemon. Mix well. Cover and place in the fridge to marinate for at least 3 hours (The longer it marinates the better the texture gets).

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Sprinkle salt and pepper on the chicken.

Manually press the&nbsp; chicken slices to flatten. Roll the chicken over the breadcrumbs. Make sure that the chicken is properly coated.

Place a wire rack over a baking tray. Make sure that the wire rack can withstand high oven temperature. Arrange the chicken pieces over the wire rack.

Bake for 14 to 16 minutes.

Adjust the oven settings to broil. Let it stay for 3 to 5 minutes or until the color is light to golden brown.

Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving plate.

Serve. Share and enjoy!
