Chicken Strips and Spiced Kumera Fries

Ingredients:

Chicken strips

600gr chicken thigh fillets, sliced into strips

1 cup milk

5 ml vinegar

1 tb cornflour

3 pieces bread

2 tb chopped continental parsley

Kumara chips

1 kg kumara, peeled and cut into chips

1 tb vegetable oil

pinch of cayenne pepper

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

Method:

Pour mix and vinegar into a bowl.  Allow to stand for about 5 minutes, to slightly curdle, and then add cornflour (It will then resemble a thick buttermilk)  Place your sliced chicken in the bowl and allow to sit whilst you prepare your breadcrumbs.

Preheat your oven to 200 degrees c.

In another bowl, add your kumera, oil, cayenne, salt and pepper - mix through with fingers until all pieces of kumera are coated.

Make your breadcrumbs by either grating or placing your bread in the food processor and pulsing until resembles rough breadcrumbs (fine if you like, I like 'em rough for this)  add salt and pepper and your parsley.
Put your kumera chips on a baking tray, and place in the oven on lower tray.
Take each piece of chicken out of the milk and roll in the breadcrumbs, place on a tray sprayed with canola oil.

Place both in the oven, after 10 minutes turn over both chicken and kumera, cook for a further 10 minutes and serve - with salad or veges of your choice!
