Tips

  • To save even more time you can completely skip the coating step for the crispy chicken & simply season the chicken & cook it on a pan/air fryer to make grilled chicken.
  • Not all the flour & breadcrumbs get used - to accurately calculate the macros weigh the chicken before & after you dip it in the flour/breadcrumbs. This will tell you exactly how much was used & stuck to the chicken in total.
