Make Chicken Nuggets with those chicken fingers you have removed from the cutlets or slice the chicken cutlets themselves. The flavor of the nuggets will depend on the marinade you use. Make your own marinade or use your favorite bottled one. You can make the nuggets, sweet or spicy depending on your taste. Serve them with a dip (even catsup) to add to the flavor profile.
