"I love crumbed chicken, I came up with this a few years ago for something new. It was a hit and we love it!"

 

• Ready In: 18mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 4 chicken breast fillets
• 1 cup flour
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1⁄3 cup prepared curry paste (your choice, I like a mild curry)
• 2 cups breadcrumbs
• 1 cup vegetable oil

directions

1. Place your hand on each fillet and CAREFULLY slice them length ways vertically, repeat with each fillet (so you get 8 thinner fillets).
2. Place the flour in one medium sized bowl and the bread crumbs in another.
3. Place the egg, water and curry paste in a third bowl and whisk together with a fork.
4. Dredge each peice of chicken in the flour, then the curry/egg mix and finish with the crumbs. Repeat with all 8 fillets. (This can be done ahead of time).
5. In a large pan or skillet heat the oil and shallow fry the chicken until golden on both sides and cooked through (about 8 minutes).
6. Serve and enjoy!
