Instructions

Bring on the Chicken

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 

b) Pop the mayo into a medium bowl.

c) In a separate medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, roasted spice & herb blend and the oil for the breadcrumbs (see pantry for amount).

c) Cut each chicken breast into 2cm strips. Season with salt and pepper, then add to the bowl of mayo and mix to coat well.
