Turkey Nuggets



Here is what you need for Turkey Nuggets:

Organic Ground Turkey Meat
1 cup Rice Flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)
2tsp Italian Spices
Salt and Pepper
1 cup Olive Oil or egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 Tbsn water)

Preheat oven to broil on 375 degrees.  I put the rice flour in a shallow dish mixed with the Italian Spices.  Also put the Olive Oil in a shallow dish to prep for the breading on the nuggets. Take a small ball of turkey meat, then roll it first in the Olive Oil (I have had a little more crispiness with an egg wash), and then in the Rice Flour mixture.  Place the balls of turkey on the pan, and press down on them with a flat surface like a spatula.  Place nuggets in the oven for 15 minutes.  Test them at 15, and if not quite browned on the outside (they should be slightly crisp) then check every few minutes until they are done.  Make sure they have sauce!  I used some ranch dressing and a honey mustard.  Let your creativity kick in on this one.
