Cooking Steps

PDF
Make the Sesame Breadcrumbs
1

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

b) Pop the mayonnaise into a medium bowl.

c) In a separate medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, sesame seeds, sesame oil and the oil for the breadcrumbs (see pantry for amount).

Bread and Bake the Tenders
2

a) Cut each chicken breast into 2cm strips. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

b) Add the chicken to the bowl of mayo, season with salt and pepper, then mix to coat well.

c) Dip the chicken into the sesame breadcrumbs, ensuring the strips are completely coated, then transfer to a lined baking tray.

d) Once the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until slightly golden and cooked through, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Finish and Serve
3

a) Once the sesame chicken tenders are cooked, place them on your serving platter.

b) Serve the teriyaki sauce in a small bowl for dipping.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Crispy and juicy chicken with good flavour, though some found the teriyaki sauce less appealing.
  • Ease of prep: Simple to make and quicker than expected; air frying produces excellent results for extra crispiness.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding more breadcrumbs and mayonnaise to ensure full coating coverage on all chicken pieces.
  • Portions: Some families wished for larger quantities, especially when serving hungry teenagers or unexpected guests.
