Chicken Nugget Parmis

If you’re anything like me and love a good shortcut dinner, you have to try these Chicken Nugget Parmis. They’re ridiculously easy, budget-friendly, and a total hit with the kids (and adults too!). 👏🏻

We had these the other night when I was low on time and energy, and they were such a winner I knew I had to share them here. You only need three ingredients, and you probably already have them in the freezer and pantry!

Ingredients

Chicken nuggets (any kind will do – we like the chicken breast ones)
Pasta sauce (jar sauce works perfectly)
Grated cheese

Instructions

Step 1
First, cook your chicken nuggets until they’re super crispy. I use the air fryer because it’s quick and gives that perfect crunch, but the oven works just as well.

Step 2
Once they’re cooked, place them on a tray or baking dish. Spoon a little bit of your pasta sauce over each nugget (not too much) and top with a generous handful of grated cheese.

Step 3
Pop them under the grill or back in the oven until the cheese is all melty and golden.

Step 4
That’s it! Told you it was easy!

You can serve these little nugget parmigianas with a side salad, some chips, or even on top of spaghetti if you want to be extra. They’re kind of like a mini pub-style parmi but made in a fraction of the time.
