Ingredients
- Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- 800 g organic chicken breast, cut into large bite-size pieces
Crumbing mixture
- 55 g (⅓ cup) tapioca flour
- 2 eggs
- 165 g (1½ cups) quinoa flakes
- 35 g (⅓ cup) grated Parmigiano Reggiano
- 2 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tsp sea salt flakes
- ¼ tsp freshly ground white pepper
Japanese mayonnaise
- 2 egg yolks, at room temperature
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 tsp light soy sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- Pinch of sea salt and freshly ground white pepper
- 200 ml canola oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Grease a baking tray with olive oil.
1. For the crumbing mixture, place the tapioca flour in a shallow bowl. Crack the eggs into another shallow bowl and lightly beat. Place the quinoa flakes, cheese, thyme, salt and pepper dry on a tray and stir to combine well.
2. Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dust the chicken in tapioca flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the beaten eggs and finally coat in the quinoa mixture, firmly pressing the chicken into the mixture. Place on the greased baking tray, then drizzle a little extra olive oil over the top. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.
3. Meanwhile, for the Japanese mayonnaise, place all the ingredients except the oil into a blender and whiz to combine well. With the motor running, very slowly add the oil in a thin steady stream until the mayonnaise is until thick and emulsified. Serve as a dipping sauce with chicken.
