My 2-year-old was diagnosed with Celiac. After experimenting with several failed chicken nugget recipes, I finally came up with one the whole family loves. This is a mild-tasting chicken nugget designed for a 2-year-old. Some additional seasoning added to the Chex® should give it a more 'grown up' flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups bite-size corn square cereal , such as Corn Chex®
- 2 eggs
- 0.33 cups rice flour
- 4 skinless , boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
- 0.25 cups oil for frying , or as needed
Instructions
-
1
Blend cereal in a blender or food processor until it has the consistency of bread crumbs; pour into a bowl.
-
2
Beat eggs in a separate bowl until smooth. Pour rice flour into a third bowl.
-
3
Dredge chicken pieces in the rice flour, dip in beaten egg, and then press into the cereal to coat. Keep breaded chicken on a large plate until all are finished, but do not stack.
-
4
Pour enough oil into a large skillet to just cover the bottom and heat over medium-high heat.
-
5
Cook chicken nuggets in hot oil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Bibimbap
I love the spicy, savory taste of Korean bibimbap, but I couldn't find a recipe here. I looked online and talked to some Korean friends, and this was the result. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as I have! To eat, just mix everything in the bowl together and enjoy with Korean hot chile sauce!
