Paleo Zesty Chicken Nuggets

These little zesty nuggets were delicious! I chopped mine up and put them in a salad. My husband just ate them by dipping them in sriracha mayo. They are super easy to make and don't take that long to bake. You can make them as nuggets, tenders, or even whole breasts. I will be making these again.
