Who doesn’t love chicken nuggets!? I think one of the reasons most people find them delicious is because they bring us back to our childhood! I made this recipe using honey, which was one of my favorite flavors to pair with chicken nuggets as a kid! I can honestly say that this is one of my husband’s favorite recipes. Little does he know, not only are they much healthier than the fried version that he knows and loves, but they are also a great source of fiber!
These taste great dipped in honey!

I tried to tonight. They turned out good. I would recommend cooking with a rack otherwise they don’t get that crispy and stay soggy on the bottom.

I’m definitely going to have to try this kind of breading for chix breast. I usually use cornflakes and then season the chicken with difference spices depending on what mood i’m in for taste, but when i have a sweet craving this one will be a must! Thanks!

We made this last week & my 15 year old daughter was in H-E-A-V-E-N!! We made it with chipotle sweet potato fries, which she is currently in love with & had a salad.
Our chicken was crispy & the flavor was perfect!

I just made these for my husband and I, along with your sweet potato fries, and they are so delicious! I think these are the best oven chicken tenders I’ve ever made! I didn’t have any Fiber One, so I used Wheat Thins with the Cheerios. Thanks for all these great recipes!

Katie – these look yummy! I often use the fiber one cereal to bread things (zucchini, onions for onion rings, chicken, veggie nuggets) but have never tried cheerios! sounds delicious and a little bit sweet, which I look! I’ll try these this weekend!

I didn’t know if there was a typo, but am I suppose to dip raw chicken in egg whites or honey or a mixture of the two? I am making tonight so I will just do honey mix with egg whites. Let me know. Thanks! Rebekah

LOVED this dish! We had it tonight with your baked mac & cheese as a side dish. My hubby and son couldn’t even tell the meal was “healthy.” You definitely have a winner here with this recipe. :-)

Hey Katie, I loved these! I cut the chicken into “nuggets” so that my picky 2 year old would eat them. I love the combination of chicken and honey, it takes me back to my childhood!

Thanks for the recommendation Jay! You can also flip them half way through cooking to crisp on both sides! :)

hey rebekah…just honey! :) (no egg whites used) …the honey takes the place of normal ‘egg whites’ to make the coating stick to the chicken!
