Mix veggies, chicken and onion salt together. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Grease your cookie sheet.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Stir with a wire whisk until evenly distributed. Pour into a 5-cup container with a tight-fitting lid. Seal container.
Label with date and contents. Store in a cool dry place. Use within 2 months or freeze. Makes about 4 1/2 cups crispy coating mix.
First, put a layer of crumb mixture on the countertop or cutting board. Then, grab a handful of the chicken/veggie mixture and press it down onto the crumb mixture.
Then sprinkle the chicken with more crumbs and press down into the meat to coat it. We used a pizza cutter to just cut bite-size squares .
You could just make single chicken nuggets and press them each into the crumb mixture, or your could cut them into shapes with cookie cutters.
Just do as you please. Now place the chicken nuggets on the prepared cookie sheet and bake them for 14-16 minutes in your preheated oven.
For the Yummy Oven Fries:
Scrub 1 potato per person being served. Wedge the potatoes lengthwise. In a large (gallon-size) ziploc bag, add some olive oil. Place the wedged potatoes in the bag and seal the bag.
Shake well to coat all the potatoes with olive oil. You can either add your seasoning to the bag at this point, like ranch dressing mix, salt and pepper, etc.
We just added salt and pepper and shook well making sure each potato has been seasoned well. Place them on a cookie sheet (no need to grease) and bake in your 400 degree oven.
They should bake for nearly an hour. So place them in the oven approximately 45 minutes before your plan on placing your chicken nuggets in the oven.
Then simply place your chicken nuggets on the lower rack when there is approximately 15 minutes of cook-time left on your potatoes. Serve with bbq sauce, ranch dressing, and fry sauce.
