Ingredients

– 1 pound frozen chicken nuggets

– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder

– Olive oil spray


Instructions

Creating this amazing Chicken Nugget Parmesan is simple and satisfying. Follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil spray.
2. Cook Chicken Nuggets: Arrange the frozen chicken nuggets in the baking dish, and bake them according to package instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, or until crispy.
3. Prepare Sauce: While the nuggets are baking, heat the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Add oregano and garlic powder to the sauce for extra flavor.
4. Layer Nuggets: After the nuggets are cooked, remove them from the oven and pour the marinara sauce evenly over the top.
5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese generously over the sauce and nuggets, ensuring even coverage.
6. Broil for a Finish: Return the baking dish to the oven and broil on high for 2-3 minutes until the cheese bubbles and turns golden brown. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
7. Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few moments. If desired, garnish with fresh basil for color and added flavor.
8. Serve: Enjoy your Chicken Nugget Parmesan while hot for the best taste and texture.

By following these steps, you’ll arrive at a dish that can impress anyone at the dinner table.
