Recipe 863 - Italian Chicken Nuggets

(by Shirley McNevich)
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1" square pieces)
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to your taste
3/4 tsp. dried basil

Salt and pepper both sides of chicken breasts (to your taste). Cut the chicken into 1" cubes and place them in a bowl--pour the Italian dressing over the top and stir gently until coated--set aside. Let the chicken marinate in the Italian dressing for 30 minutes. In a separate bowl add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and basil--stir. Drop a few of the coated chicken pieces into the bread crumb mixture at a time--toss to coat. Place coated pieces in a baking dish (sprayed with Pam)--do not stack them--must be a single layer. Continue with all chicken pieces. Sprinkle any leftover bread crumb mixture over the top of the chicken pieces. Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is done.
