Dukkah Crusted Chicken Strips

Serves 4

Ingredients

• 2 egg whites, lightly beaten

• 500g chicken breast/tenderloins

Dukkah Spice (yields 1¼  cups)

• 1 cup almonds

• 1 tablespoon ground coriander

• 1 tablespoon ground cumin

• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

• 1 tsp salt flake

• ½ tsp white pepper

Alternatively buy a pre-made one. Check to make sure there isn't any added preservatives or sugar. I like The Olive Branch Dukkah blends which you can buy from Harris Farm. Product image below. 

Method: 

01: Preheat oven to 220 degrees - 200 fan forced

02: Add the Dukkah ingredients to the food processor and process until almonds are crushed and the ingredients are well combined 

03: Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl 

04: Add the chicken and toss well to ensure each piece is coated in the egg white

05: Line a baking tray with baking paper and sprinkle some of the dukka spice onto it

06: Lay down the chicken tenterloins & sprinkle more of the spice on top

07: Push the spice firmly into the chicken and make sure each piece is well coated

08: Place the tray into oven and cook for approximately 20 minutes or until golden and crispy (time will vary depending on thickness of chicken).
