My friend Mayra from Low Carb Love made these canned chicken nuggets, and these turned out delicious! Best part, only 2 Weight Watchers points per serving.
Don’t let the canned chicken freak you out. The best part about this recipe is that it has so few ingredients.
These chicken nuggets are just canned chicken, egg, parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese and your seasonings of choice. And no oil other than the avocado oil that you add before baking.
Ingredients
- 10 ounce can chicken breast (drained and patted dry)
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese
- seasonings of choice (I used garlic powder, salt and pepper)
Instructions
- Heat air fryer to 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
- Drain the chicken and squeeze dry. Add egg, and cheeses and mix until combined.
- Divide mixture into 8 nuggets, shaping them with your hands to come together.
- Spray with avocado oil spray and air fry for 12 minutes at 400 degrees.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and fruit and veggies on the side.
