    * 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized chunks
    * 1 cup of Italian style panko crumbs
    * 1 egg, mixed well
    * Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
    * Olive oil cooking spray
    * Roasted Tomato, Garlic and Onion Marinara Sauce


    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a cooling rack inside a baking sheet and coat rack with cooking spray. Cut chicken into large chunks and remove any fat. Mix the egg well in a bowl and season with sea salt and pepper. Place the panko crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip the chicken into the egg then into the panko, making sure to coat evenly. Place chicken nuggets on top of the rack and spray with olive oil cooking spray.


    Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly and is golden brown. Serve with warm marinara sauce. Enjoy.
