Fakeaway Chicken Nuggets
Swap takeaway chicken nuggets for this delicious fake-away version, great for dinners, picnics, and packed lunches. Serve with tomato salsa dip, guacamole, mayonnaise (I love this sugar-free avocado oil mayonnaise from Hunter & Gather), or straightforward baked beans and sweet potato wedges.
This recipe also works for fake-away fish fingers. Swap out the chicken for firm white fish like cod, halibut, or haddock cut into thick strips.
