Ingredients

500 gram chicken breast fillets, cut into chunks

1 cup mayonnaise

4 cup crushed cornflakes

2 teaspoon mild paprika

2 teaspoon garlic salt

1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs

1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

sweet and sour sauce, to serve

Fried rice

1 tablespoon oil

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/2 teaspoon grated ginger

2 cup cooked long grain rice

Method

1.Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan-forced). Line an oven tray with baking paper. Place chicken in a bowl with mayonnaise; toss to coat.

2.Combine cornflake crumbs, paprika, garlic salt, herbs and pepper in a bowl. Remove 1 piece of chicken from the mayonnaise; wipe off excess. Coat chicken in crumb mixture. Place on tray. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces. Spray chicken with oil.

3.Bake 15-20 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and cooked through.

4.Meanwhile, make fried rice: heat oil in a large wok or frying pan on high. Stir-fry vegetables 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; stir-fry 1 minute. Add rice. Cook, tossing, until well combined and hot. Serve nuggets with rice and sauce.

For easy coating, combine all crumb ingredients in a plastic bag and shake to coat 3-4 pieces of chicken at a time. You could use thigh fillets instead of breast, if preferred.
