Directions
- Make sure the chicken is fully defrosted. ≈ 3 min
- If the chicken is frozen, it may release some moisture during thawing, so it’s best to remove it. ≈ 3 min
- If necessary, cut the chicken into smaller pieces. ≈ 8 min
- The leg portions can be cut in half at the joint between the thigh and the calf. ≈ 3 min
- Crack the egg into a cup, add the spices, and mix well. ≈ 4 min
- Rub the chicken with the spice mixture. ≈ 4 min
- That’s fine, even though there’s still a bit of marinade left, as you can then place the chicken in the refrigerator and allow the marinade to penetrate the meat for a few minutes.
- Reapply the sauce to the chicken to moisten the surface. ≈ 4 min
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F) using the convection and grill settings.
- Or, simply, at 220 °C. ≈ 3 min
- In this case, the oven will be hot enough.
- The pan should be placed at the lowest rack in the oven and positioned directly above it.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a dish and roll a portion of chicken in the breadcrumbs, then sprinkle more on and roll again until the entire portion is covered. ≈ 10 min
- Remove any excess breadcrumbs and place them on a separate plate. ≈ 3 min
- Repeat until you are finished. ≈ 3 min
- Place the chicken pieces in the oven, on the rack, and close the door.
- The cooking time may vary slightly depending on the oven.
- In an oven with a fan and wire rack, this takes approximately 30 to 40 minutes.
- In another oven, you may need to make slight adjustments.
- The crust should be golden brown with some slightly darker spots when the fish is cooked, but always ensure that the fish is cooked through. ≈ 3 min
- The chicken can be served with a salad, and optionally with fried rice.
