Breadcrumbs and a Lunchtime Snack


I like to keep breadcrumbs in the freezer.  I find French Stick makes the best breadcrumbs.  You don't have to defrost them before using them, so they can be used straight from the the freezer.  I use them for toppings and coating chicken.



4 x Chicken Portions or
Pack of Chicken Pieces for making curries etc
Italian Herbs
1 or 2 Eggs
Flour
Bread Crumbs
Cooking Oil
3 Bowls
Bowl one - Break 2 eggs and whisk, add extra one if needed
Bowl two - Breadcrumbs and Italian Herbs mixed together
Bowl three - Flour
Dip the chicken in eggs,
cover in flour the shake off excess,
dip the chicken back into the eggs,
cover in the bread crumbs
Gently heat a little oil in a frying pan,
fry just browning the breadcrumbs,
put the chicken on a baking tray
Put chicken pieces into a hot oven to cook
for about twenty minutes
200 degrees, gas 6 till cooked through,
MAKE sure the chicken is thoroughly cooked. 

This can be prepared to putting on baking tray prior to putting in the oven and cooked later
