Parmesan-crusted chicken with roast pumpkin salad

Cooking Meat Parmesan-crusted chicken with roast pumpkin salad

Parmesan ups the flavour factor for these chicken tenderloins, while panko breadcrumbs give them extra crunch.

  1. Combine breadcrumbs and parmesan on a large plate. Season with salt and pepper. Place flour in a large bowl. Place egg in a shallow bowl.
  2. Toss 1 chicken piece in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg. Coat in breadcrumb mixture. Place on a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken, flour, egg and breadcrumb mixture. Cover, refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove chicken from the fridge. Pour enough oil into a deep frying pan to come 5mm up side of pan. Heat over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, in 2 batches, for 3 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to drain. Slice.
  4. Meanwhile, make Pumpkin salad: Squeeze 1 garlic clove from skin. Discard skin. Place garlic into a small bowl. Add vinegar and oil. Whisk to combine. Combine spinach, onion, pumpkin and pine nuts in a large bowl. Drizzle vinegar mixture over spinach mixture. Toss to combine. Serve chicken tossed through salad.
