How to cook deliciously - Chicken Nuggets

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, toss panko with oil. Spread on a baking sheet and bake, checking frequently and stirring after 2 minutes, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

Place a wire rack inside baking sheet. Spray rack with cooking spray. Pour flour into a small shallow dish. In a second shallow dish, beat egg until blended.

Season chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt. Toss in flour, then dredge in beaten egg, allowing excess to drip back into dish. Roll in bread crumbs, firmly pressing to adhere. Arrange on prepared rack.
