Golden, Home-Baked Chicken Nuggets
By Kevin Williams
This recipe comes to me from an Old Order Mennonite woman in Dayton, Virginia. Â McDonalds, I realize, created the whole "chicken nugget" concept, but there have to be healthier ways to enjoy this ubiquitous food. Â This Mennontie cooks version looks easy and definitely healthier than McDonald's mystery meat.
