Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400°F / 232°C. Prepare baking sheet and spray light oil.
2. Cut chicken breasts into nugget-sized pieces,and set aside.
3. mix all dry ingredients
4. Combine water and egg in a medium bowl. Dip each piece of chicken in the water/egg-white mixture. Then dip each piece in the coating mixture. Make sure each piece is well coated.
5. Place on the baking sheet. When all of your chicken has been coated and your baking sheet is full, place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden.
6. To make crispy I like to broil them for a few minutes.
