The right idea
Those suffering from celiac disease can replace white flour with corn starch or rice starch: the result will still be excellent.- Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan and brown the chicken nuggets on all sides. In the meantime, the vegetables will have softened and browned: then add the vegetable mix to the browned chicken and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Serve the steaming chicken nuggets, finishing with a drop of balsamic vinegar glaze.
