Method for nuggets

Preheat the oven to 200 °C (fan oven 180 °C).
Cut the chicken into nugget-sized pieces.
Whisk together the egg, yoghurt, paprika and salt.
Dip the chicken pieces into the egg and yoghurt mixture.
Then coat in panko or cornflakes.
Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Drizzle or brush with a little olive oil.

Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

TIP: Fresh vegetable sticks such as cucumber, carrot or pepper are the perfect accompaniment and add even more colour and freshness to the plate.

What to do if the little ones aren’t keen on vegetable sticks?

If the colourful sticks are left untouched, we have a simple solution: this creamy tomato and vegetable sauce cleverly hides the vegetables – and is guaranteed to taste great.
