You’ll love these nuggets because:
- They're healthy

For this recipe you need:

- Seasonings to taste: paprika, smoked paprika, and garlic powder
- Chicken breast cut into cubes
- Salt to taste
- Olive oil spray
Which corn flakes can I use?
There are plenty available on the market, but I recommend choosing the simplest ones possible, without added sugars. Check the ingredient list and make sure they don’t contain sugar or other unnecessary ingredients. You can find several options, such as the 0% added sugar corn flakes from Mercadona, the Nacional brand, and even at Continente.
Can I use other seasonings?
Absolutely! I’ve tried it with oregano, and it was divine. Also, if you don’t have smoked paprika, there’s no need to add it-it’s not mandatory.
