Homemade Quinoa Chicken Nuggets

Serves 4
Prep time 25 mins
Cook time 20 mins

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. (450g) chicken breasts, cut into chunks

• 1 cup (185g) cooked quinoa

• 1 egg, beaten

• ¼ cup (30g) cup Parmesan, grated

Instructions:

1. Set oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a baking tray covered with baking paper and evenly spread out the cooked quinoa. Bake for around 20-25 minutes, checking often and stirring to avoid burning. Once quinoa is crispy, set aside to cool.

2. Increase the oven temperature to 390°F (200°C).

3. Whisk the egg in a bowl together with the Parmesan. Prepare a separate plate with the quinoa. Dip the chicken chunks first in the egg, then coat with the quinoa.

4. Place the chicken nuggets on a baking tray covered with baking paper and bake for about 15-20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.

5. Serve as protein of an Eat Shed Glow™ balanced meal. Store any leftover for next day salad.
