This comes from one of my favorite recipe for kids books, First Meals by Annabel Karmel. There are many possible variations possible using different fruits and adding veg, maybe using yogurt, cereal instead of breadcrumbs, etc. Jack loved it and it's a little more of that traditional chicken nugget texture. Tommy, of course, did not touch it. Here is the recipe in its true form
3/4 lb chicken cutlets, cut into chunks
1 large onion, diced
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 small apple, peeled and grated
3/4 cup fresh white bread crumbs
1 chicken bouillon cube, crumbled
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
2 oz cheese and onion flavored chips, finely crushed
vegetable oil for frying
1. Put the first 6 ingredients in a food processor and chop for a few seconds until well combined. Shape the mixture into a flat disk
2. Use a 2 1/2 in cookie cutter to press out heart shapes. Mix the bread crumbs and chips on a plate and press the pieces into the coating.
3. Heat enough oil in a large skillet for shallow frying. Add the nuggets and cook for about 6 minutes, turning occassionally, until lightly golden and cooked through
