Homemade Chicken Nuggets

Healthier homemade nuggets compare to store bought!! Definitely will keep this recipe forever :D After slicing into small pieces, my boy can't help and eaten a few slices before I even deep fried them! :D

Spread in pan, ready to put into steamer, I lined the pan using baking paper instead of plastic wrap as I'm afraid whether the cling wrap (recent 塑化剂 food contamination cases in Taiwan!!) will actually contaminate the food! Though I quite sure is safe in Singapore, but better to play safe :D

After steaming...
Coated with eggs & breadcrumbs....
