all hail the thai chicken nuggets

Most of the time Real Simple's "Fake it, don't make it" recipes rely too heavily on processed foods in order to save time. However, awhile ago, I stumbled upon a recipe for baked "fiery" chicken nuggets that the kids LOVE. The pineapple/thai chili-garlic paste really adds a nice flavor and the japanese panko bread crumbs make all of the difference. I tried corn flake breading once and it wasn't nearly as good. I'm not sure what the Japanese do to their breadcrumbs-but whatever it is, it works!

It's a no-brainer dinner. Easy, relatively healthful, and did I mention that the kids love it? Even the chef loves it.
