This week's Fuel My Friday is a quick and easy alternative to your favourite fried chicken takeaway.
Ingredients (serves two)
2 chicken breasts
4 teaspoons olive oil
50g oats
1 teaspoon dried herbs
1 tsp of mixed spices (such as paprika, chilli and allspice)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 chicken stock cube
6 tablespoons plain flour
1 egg
Method:
Blitz the oats, stock cube, herbs and spices together in a smoothie maker or blender until they make a powder - tip this out onto a plate and put to one side
In a shallow bowl beat the egg
On a separate plate to the spice mix put the flour
Flatten chicken breasts with a rolling pin then slice into thin strips
Coat each strip of chicken with flour, then egg then into the oat mixture
Add the olive oil to a pan then add then fry the chicken strips for two minutes on each side on a medium high heat. Reduce the heat and allow to cook or a further 4-5 minutes until the chicken has cooked through.
