Directions

Clean the chicken breasts and cut them into smaller pieces or strips, depending on the shape you want your strips to have.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, finely grated Parmesan or Pecorino cheese, and Greek yogurt. Add salt, pepper, grill seasoning, and pressed garlic. Finally, gradually mix in Nominal fine spelt flour. The batter should be thick enough to stick well to the meat. If it is too runny and slides off the meat, add a little more flour until you reach the desired consistency.
Coat the strips – Prepare three bowls: put Nominal fine spelt flour into the first one, the prepared batter into the second, and Nominal instant corn breadcrumbs into the third.
Coat each piece of chicken first in flour, then in the batter, and finally in the corn breadcrumbs. Gently press the breadcrumbs onto the meat so they stick well.

Our tip: Serve with a yogurt dip, garlic mayonnaise, vegetable salad, or roasted potatoes. Nominal instant corn breadcrumbs create an especially crispy coating, making them perfect for baking in the oven or preparing in an air fryer.

You can prepare the strips in several ways:

In an air fryer: Place the strips in the air fryer basket, lightly spray with oil, and cook until golden and crispy. You can turn them once during preparation.

In the oven: Place the coated strips on a baking tray lined with baking paper, spray with oil, and bake at 190–200 °C until golden. Turn them halfway through baking.

In a pan: Fry the strips in heated oil on both sides until golden. After frying, let them drain briefly on a paper towel.
