Chicken Nuggets 

1(12.5 oz) can Chicken Breast Chunks

Seasoning of choice
 (I used 1/4-1/2 tsp Ranch Powder)


Drain the chicken; squeezing out as much of the liquid as possible. 
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
Use a small cookie scoop or a rounded tablespoon and form into small nuggets with your hands. 
This makes about a dozen. 
Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes, flipping them over halfway through. 
Can also be made in the air fryer but the cooking time will be less.
