Easy salt and pepper chicken pieces
I came up with this recipe of my own after falling in love with salt and pepper chicken pieces from the local Chinese takeaway. It's now a cheaper option for me to cook it myself...and it's simple! Nice on either a bed of lettuce or served with sweet chilli sauce. And great as a starter of part of a main course with fried rice!
Ingredients
Serves: 2
- 1 large green pepper
- 1 large onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 green or red chillies (or one of each)
- 3-4 chicken breasts
- 90g breadcrumbs
- 3-4 pinches of salt
- 3-4 pinches of sugar
- 3 tablespoons sunflower oil (or olive oil for extra flavour)

could I use cornflour instead of breadcrumbs? - 13 Aug 2014
this was delicious and was very easy to make although I did use eggs and a little milk to dip chicken in before putting in breadcrumbs as it sticks to the mix better - 12 Sep 2013
