Crumbed Chicken – Oven Baked + Gluten Free

This crumbed chicken recipe is a really great way to make crunchy chicken schnitzels without any deep frying or even any messy coating in batter! Instead of the old way of dipping in flour, egg then breadcrumb, this cheat’s version just uses a spreading of mayo on the top of the chicken and stick the crumb to that. Bake it in the oven for a healthy crumbed chicken and the kids will love it just as much! I have also snuck in some hemp seeds into the crumb for added nutrients.

How to cook Baked Chicken Schnitzel;

  • Mix together the breadcrumb – I have used a combination of gluten free breadcrumbs made from rice, crushed almonds, hemp seeds, garlic and olive oil. Such a nutrient dense crumb.
  • Layer the crumb – no need for dredging and dipping into bowls, just spread over the mayonnaise then press down the breadcrumbs.
  • Oven Bake – bake in the oven with no added oil until crispy and chicken is cooked through. This way chicken stays really tender.
