- Serves: 3–4 people
- Equipment: MZ 500 multi-chopper
Ingredients
- 500 g chicken breast
- 2 eggs
- 1 stale/dry bread roll
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp paprika powder
- 50 g cornflakes
- 100 g Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper
- Sunflower oil
Also needed:
- Baking paper
Instructions
- Finely chop the chicken breast in the MZ 500 multi-chopper along with one egg, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of paprika powder, and half of the Parmesan cheese.
- With wet hands, take tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture, shape them into small nuggets, and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
- Place the shaped nuggets and tray in the freezer for 30 minutes. This makes breading easier later.
- In the meantime, prepare the coating. Add the bread roll, cornflakes, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon paprika powder, and the remaining Parmesan cheese to the multi-chopper and pulse into a coarse breadcrumb mixture.
- Take the nuggets out of the freezer. Dip them first in beaten egg, then coat them in the breadcrumb mixture.
- Lightly spray the nuggets with sunflower oil and place them in the air fryer basket. Bake at 200 °C for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with your favorite dip—and enjoy!
