Homemade Chicken Goujons Recipe

Ingredients

• Allow for half a chicken fillet per child and a full fillet for each adult. You can use regular or free-range chicken fillets
• A plate of plain flour (approx 150g, but you can use more if needed) seasoned with a little salt and pepper
• A bowl containing lightly beaten egg, one egg will usually coat two diced fillets
• A plate of breadcrumbs (approx 150g – again, use more if you need too)

Method

• Cut the chicken fillets into pieces/strips.
• Roll each piece in the flour, dust off any excess.
• Dip the floured piece into the beaten egg.
• Finally, coat the chicken piece in breadcrumbs and set aside until ready to cook.
• Repeat until all the chicken pieces have been floured, egged and breadcrumbed.
• To cook, we deep-fried them at 170^oC for about 10 mins, but they’re also suitable for oven baking at 180C for about 30 minutes (depending on size) or until cooked through.
