CRUNCHY HONEY AND GARLIC CHICKEN

to make crunchy honey and garlic chicken you will need:

• 2 chicken breasts
• 25g panko (5 syns)
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 tsp each salt, nutmeg, ginger, thyme, sage and paprika (if you leave out anything, sage and thyme are the ones to get rid of)
• pinch of cayenne pepper
• 2 tsp dried garlic 
• 2 eggs
• 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tbsp honey (2.5 syns)

to make crunchy honey and garlic chicken you should:

• in another bowl, crack the two eggs and add 4 tbsp of water and whisk together like you’re going out of business
• meanwhile, stick the oven up to 220 degrees making sure your baking sheet is in there – having a hot sheet helps to crisp up the chicken and make it crunchy
• when the oven is hot enough, dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture and then into the breadcrumbs – coating evenly
• place onto the hot baking sheet and spray with frylight
• bake in the oven for about 15 minutes – don’t open the door!
• to make the sauce (optional!) 
• spray a small frying pan with a little frylight over a medium-high heat
• add the chopped garlic and stir constantly for about a minute
• add the soy sauce and honey and reduce the heat to a simmer, and stir occasionally for 1-2 minutes

We served it with a few roasties done in the Actifry and green beans, which we just cooked off with some more minced garlic and chilli flakes in the pan that we cooked the sauce with. Simple!
