Equipment
- lidded storage container
- baking tray
- Food processor useful but not essential
Ingredients
- 300 g chicken breast
- 1 small egg
- 75 g gluten free bread
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (180 fan). Lightly grease a baking tray.
- Blitz the gluten free bread into breadcrumbs (no need to remove the crusts) in a food processor or blender. You could also crumble the breadcrumbs with your fingers, or chop the bread finely with a knife.
- Slice the chicken breast meat into strips approx 1.5 cm wide.
- Add the egg to a storage container with a lid and beat with a fork until the yolks and white are mixed.
- Add the chicken strips to the egg and stir until well coated.
- Add the breadcrumbs to the box and put on the lid. Shake until the chicken is coated in the breadcrumbs.
- Tip the breaded chicken goujons onto the greased baking tray and cook in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until crisp and golden.
Notes
- 300g of chicken makes a very generous portion for 2 hungry adults, it'll easily serve 3 - 4 children.
- If liked you could add a couple of tablespoons of grated parmesan to the breadcrumbs for a cheesy chicken goujon. Herbs can also be added - fresh parsley, dill or thyme all work well.
- Uncooked breaded chicken can be stored covered in the fridge for up to a day before baking. It can also be frozen.
