Cook Time

Yield

20 pieces (4 servings)

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless skinless Ontario turkey breast, about 1 lb/454 g
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) each of chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2½ cups (625 mL) corn flakes, crushed
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) fresh parsley, minced

Instructions

  • Cut turkey into about twenty 1 1/2 inch (3.5 cm) chunks and place in a bowl. Add oil, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper; toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle flour over top and toss to coat well.
  • Place egg in a shallow bowl and beat lightly with a fork. In another shallow dish, combine cornflakes and parsley.
  • Dip a few pieces of turkey at a time into egg and remove letting excess drip off. Drop into cornflake mixture and coat well. Place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining turkey pieces.
  • Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for about 15 minutes, turning halfway through until golden and no longer pink inside. Serve with your favourite dipping sauce.

Chef's Tips

  • For a smoky flavour addition substitute smoked paprika for the chili powder.
  • Optional: Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) grated Parmesan cheese to the cornflake mixture before coating the nuggets.
