Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Season the chicken thighs. Mix the Parmesan and breadcrumbs on a flat plate and put the flour and egg onto separate plates. Coat each thigh in flour, dusting off the excess, then dip in egg and roll in breadcrumbs. Sit on a rack over a baking tray and bake for 40 minutes until crisp and golden.
  2. Boil or steam the broccoli until tender, then drain. Melt the butter in a pan and gently sizzle the garlic for 2-3 minutes. Add the lemon juice and zest and season. Toss with the broccoli and serve with the chicken.

    I would like to give this a go but it looks a bit dry. Has anybody made it and can tell me different?

    Not tried this one, but do similar with dried polenta and spices to cover chicken breast. I add a bit of oil to pan and gently cook. Have also sprayed them with oil and cooked in oven as above. Second option healthiest obviously. Kids like both but prefer first as its more McDonalds. Depends how I feel when I cook them really.

    They won't be dry if you don't overcook them.

    Chicken was nice, served it with roast new potatoes, but broccoli was too lemony - probably nicer without the lemon rind.

    I tried this tonight. I didn't use parmesan, just fresh beadcrumbs flavoured with salt, pepper and dried thyme. Deep fried and then finished off in the oven until chicken cooked through. Served wih tender stem broccoli that i cooked in a bue cheese sauce. Heaven on a plate.
