Description
Chicken tenderloins marinated in buttermilk then lightly crumbed and baked in the oven.
Ingredients
- 600g / 10 chicken tenderloins or sliced chicken breast
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Head of broccoli, cut into pieces
- 1 large sweet potato, cut into thin chips
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon rice bran oil
- oil spray
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or homemade)
Instructions
Place the chicken in a glass dish, coat in the buttermilk, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
Pre heat oven to 200°C.
Drain the chicken and shake off any excess buttermilk. Combine the flour and breadcrumbs on a plate and coat each piece of chicken to cover.
Place the butter and oil in a large rimmed baking dish and place in the oven for a few minutes. Remove and spread the melted butter an oil over base of tray.
Lay out the chicken, broccoli and sweet potato. Spray the top of the chicken pieces and bake in the oven for 12 minutes, then turn the chicken. Check the broccoli at this stage as it may be cooked to your liking. Remove the chicken after 25 minutes and leave the sweet potato a little longer if needed.
Notes
This just gives a really light crumb to the chicken.
Adding the oil with the butter stops the butter from burning.
