Actifry chicken nuggets are amazing! Lightly seasoned and coated in golden breadcrumbs they’re a meal the whole family will enjoy! 

I have an Actifry Genius which conveniently has a setting for breaded foods – so I use this. But, the recipe is also achievable in any model of Actifry or arifryer! 

These nuggets are really versatile – they’re great on their own with heaps of ketchup and fries. Or, sometimes we have them in wraps with lettuce for a really nice lunch.
