Homemade Chicken Nuggets

• 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  
• 
  
• 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  
• 
  
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  
• 
  
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
  
• 
  
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  
• 
  
• 1 teaspoon salt
  
• 
  
• ½ cup butter, melted

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2: Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan, basil, thyme, and salt together well in a medium bowl. Put melted butter in a bowl or dish for dipping.

Step 3: Dip chicken pieces into the melted butter first, then coat with the bread crumb mixture. Place the well-coated chicken nuggets on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer.

Step 4: Bake nuggets in the preheated oven until browned and chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
