Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture to coat well.
Place the coated nuggets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and cooked through.
In a small pan, heat olive oil over medium heat; add lemon juice and capers, cooking for 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle the lemony piccata sauce over the chicken nuggets and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

For extra crunch, broil 1–2 minutes at the end—watch carefully. Pat chicken dry first for better adhesion of the breadcrumb mix.
