Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Spread the panko in an even layer on a large baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray. Bake 2 minutes, stir or shake the pan, then bake 2–4 more minutes until golden brown. Leave the oven on.
3. Transfer the toasted panko to a medium bowl and whisk in the kosher salt, black pepper, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder and cayenne (if using). Set aside.
4. In another medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the almond milk (or milk of choice). Set aside.
5. Line the baking sheet with an oven-safe wire rack and spray it generously with nonstick spray.
6. Dip each chicken cube in the egg mixture, then toss it in the seasoned panko until fully coated. Place on the wire rack about 1 inch apart.
7. Spray the tops of the nuggets generously with nonstick spray.
8. Bake 15–20 minutes, until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken reads 165°F (74°C).
