  1. I was getting so tired of eating the same old chicken. This recipe added some excitement to our meal. I was just the right blend of spices. Not too spicy, but certainly not bland. I will be making these tasty nuggets again.
     
  2. Yummy! We loved it. I followed the recipe exactly and even added more cayenne pepper because we like it spicy. Thanks for posting. Made for Fall PAC 2009.
     
  3. GREAT RECIPE you have here! I made it to include on my finger food counter for a group I host each month & they loved these TASTY LITTLE BITES! I did cut back on the cayenne pepper by almost half; substituted lemon pepper for the usual S&P; & I used whole wheat bread crumbs that I'd processed fine ~ All for some tasty chicken nuggets that everyone raved about! Keepin' this one around! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]
