Cut chicken breasts into strips
Toss them in flour
whisk a egg and add a little cayenne pepper then toss the chicken in the mixture
roll in breadcrumbs

lay on a baking sheet and cook for 12 - 18 mins on 220 degrees

They were so yummy

I just finish cooking ORANGE CHICKEN! Roll chicken breast into flour ( flour mix with a little bit of salt and pepper) deep fry then set aside. Prepare Orange sauce . Put water in a pan, two tablespoon of soy sauce, one tablespoon of vinegar and a cup of fresh orange juice ( orange in a bottle will do if you don't have fresh) then boil for 3 minutes.
While simmering put minced garlic, let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Then put 3 tablespoons of dark brown sugar, and half a teaspoon of cornstarch. WHen the sauce is sticky, pour the chiken into the mixture and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes until the sauce is a little dried. Then put sliced onion leaves when served.
It was my first time to cook this recipe, I got it from you tube and it worked, smells good and delicious for my taste! Goodluck!

Chicken with cheese and bacon

Cut a slice into the chicken breast, shove the cheese into where you have sliced, Tightly wrap with bacon, you can secure it with a cocktail stick if you want. Bung it in the oven

chicken and apple balls (had to look this one up because couldnt remember recipe.

Heat the olive oil in a pan and sauté half the onion for about 5 minutes.

2Using your hands, squeeze out a little excess liquid from the grated apple.

3Mix the apple with the chicken, cooked and remaining raw onion, herbs, stock cube (from one year) and breadcrumbs, and roughly chop in a food processor for a few seconds.

4Season with a little salt and pepper (from one year).

5With your hands, form into about 20 little balls, roll in flour and fry in shallow oil for about 5 minutes until lightly golden and cooked through
 
hubby's favourite chicken dish i make is chicken in madeira wine, which you can do although preggers as the booze burns off. I especially like this now preggers as i feel like i'm still getting my booze but safely! :lol:

For 2 You need:

about half a bottle of madeira wine
4 garlic cloves (leave whole - peeled)
handful of fresh thyme sprigs
2 chicken breasts well salted and peppered.

Cook:

1. fry your seasoned chicken breasts whole until lightly golden, add the garlic cloves whole, thyme sprigs and pour in half a bottle of the madeira wine.
2. Turn down to a simmer and leave for 15-20mins.
3. Serve.

I like to serve it with some baby tatties & baby veg nice and crisp.
 
I like garlic butter roast chicken... mmm. You just need butter, garlic and pesto.

Chop the garlic as finely as you'd like and mix together with a nob of butter and a teaspoon of pesto. Smother it on the chicken breasts, cover with foil and cook in the oven for 45 minutes, or however long it takes in your oven (the last 10 of which I usually uncover it to crisp it up a little :D).

I usually have this with new potatoes and veg, or chips if I'm feeling lazy.

Would this work if I poached the chicken instead of deep frying it?
