In case you haven’t figured it out, we’re big on chicken nuggets in this house. I blame it on being such a picky eater growing up. Going out to eat with friends or family was stressful for me because I pretty much didn’t like anything except fruits and vegetables. Luckily, I always like chicken nuggets and chicken tenders. They always come without stuff on them so it’s hard to mess up the order and almost every restaurant has them.

Even though I’ve definitely expanded my tastes as an adult, I still have a soft spot for these breaded yummies. Instead of going for the frozen kind in the stores, I’ve taken to experimenting with different flavors and breading. These delicious barbecue chicken nuggets are the latest awesome creation from these experiments!
