- 3 skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter melted
Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
Mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan, basil, thyme, and salt together well in a medium bowl. Put melted butter in a bowl or dish for dipping.
Dip chicken pieces into the melted butter first, then coat with the bread crumb mixture.
Place the well-coated chicken nuggets on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer.
Bake nuggets in the preheated oven until browned and chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
