In the final meal of my PaleOMG cookfest a few days ago, we decided to make Cilantro Chicken Nuggets!
I will not lie when I say that as we were making the nuggets, our thought was… this doesn’t look very appealing. But as the balls of ground chicken meat started cooking, they began to look more and more like chicken nuggets! Then, when it was time to try them, these PaleOMG creations did not disappoint!
Aside from my one piece of feedback, (that I would have used a bit less cilantro) these were probably the biggest hit of the day. If you try them, let me know what you think, please.
Basic ingredient list below, as usual.
