Yummy! These were really easy to make, and very versatile (depending on what extra seasonings you use). A very healthy way to make chicken nuggets. And gluten free, too! I think I might have scared my downstairs neighbors when I was pounding the chicken with a rolling pin. But that's not enough to stop me from making these again!

Very good- I did have to leave them in longer than listed and I added spices to give flavor but overall it made a great meal!

This was a huge success in our house and DS aged 22 has nearly eaten the lot with rocket and sweet chili sauce for dinner and now taken it in a baguette for lunch at uni and he is hard to please !!! I dumped the whole lot in a plastic bag, shook it round and then got out the chicken tenderloins one by one and put them on the oven tray - so so so easy !! thankyou **Jubes**
