  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp cajun seasoning

  • In a bowl, add your cajun seasoning to the chicken and rub so that the pieces are thoroughly coated. You can leave to marinate for 20 minutes to 24 hours if you like but honestly, the chicken absorbs the flavour straight away. 
  • Time to prep you station. Add enough flour to coat 4 pieces of chicken onto a plate. In a bowl, beat your egg and milk. In another plate, add your bread crumbs, chicken seasoning cube, black pepper, optional chilli powder and parsley.
  • One by one, dip your chicken into the flour until thoroughly coated. Then, dip it in the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumbs. Lay each piece on a grill pan. 
  • Place your chicken in the oven for 25 minutes or until fully cooked through. Spray 3 sprays of cooking spray on each side.
  • Flip over to the other side and broil for 5 minutes until golden brown. Then flip over to the other side to broil if not already golden brown. 
  • Take out and enjoy!
