Chicken Recipe

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 15 minutes

Makes: 2-3 child portions


Ingredients

2 tablespoons sunflower oil

45g / 1½oz Rice Krispies

1 tablespoon finely grated mature Cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

1 egg

1 tablespoon milk

4 tablespoons plain flour

200g / 7oz skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1.5cm / ½ in cubes

dips, to serve (optional)


Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6.

2. Place half the oil in the bowl of a food processor with the Rice Krispies and grated

cheeses and blitz to evenly combine (you may need to stop and scrape the mixture

down from the sides of the bowl a couple of times). Alternatively, crush them in a plastic

bag with a rolling pin. Transfer the Krispie mixture to a wide, shallow bowl or a large

plate.

3. Whisk the egg in a small bowl with the milk and mix the flour with a little salt and

pepper (if using) and spread it out on a large plate. Grease a baking sheet with the

remaining oil.

4. Toss the chicken cubes in the flour, dip them in the egg, then coat them in the Krispie

coating. Lay them on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, or until cooked through

and crispy, turning them over halfway.

5. Serve immediately, with dips if you wish (mayonnaise, ketchup).
