1 slice of Brennans B Good Wholemeal Bread(or any other HEXB Bread)
1 egg, beaten

Method
 Preheat oven at 180 degrees(fan oven)

1. Par boil potatoes for 5-10 minutes, depending on thickness of chip.
2. Drain and dry the chips, spray evenly with Frylight and sprinkle on  chilli flakes and powder and mix.
3. Blend B Good bread into breadcrumbs with chilli flakes and chilli powder. I use a food processor or a blender
4. Dice up Chicken Breasts into strips
5. Dip strips into the beaten egg and then dip the strips covered in beaten egg into bread crumbs.
6. Once covered in breadcrumbs pop strips into a tin foiled (sprayed with frylight) oven dish.

8. While they are in the oven prepare vegetables.
9. In a wok on low heat add in onions, peppers and carrots and spray with frylight. Sweat the veg for a good 15 minutes i.e do not colour the veg but soften them.
10. Add in the rest of the chilli flakes and powder.
11. Once chicken and chips are done, mix together with the veg and sprinkle on on salt.
