Ingredients
- Chicken
- 2 tbsp oil
- 3 mixed peppers, sliced
- 1 red onion, sliced
- Salt & black pepper
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp cumin
- 1½ tbsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- ¾ tbsp fine sea salt
- 1 tbsp light brown sugar
- 5 chicken breasts
- 100g plain flour, seasoned
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 100g panko breadcrumbs
- Cheese Sauce
- 200g Red Leicester
- 1 tbsp corn starch
- 410ml evaporated milk
Instructions
- Fry the peppers and onions with a little salt and pepper then set aside to cool when soft.
- Mix the spices together and set aside.
- Between two pieces of clingfilm, bash the chicken breasts until they are around ½ cm thick all over. Sprinkle both sides with the fajita seasoning and spread some of the cooled peppers and onions over them.
- Starting from the narrow end of the chicken breasts, roll them up into a neat bundle. Roll them up tightly in clingfilm to keep their shape and set them in the freezer for around an hour, until firm but not frozen through.
- With all the ingredients in large bowls, dip the (unwrapped) chicken spirals in the flour, then egg mix, then breadcrumbs, shaking off excess as you go.
- In a large skillet shallow fry the chicken spirals in oil at around 160°C, turning them frequently so they don't scorch. When an internal temperature measures 71°C they are ready to eat. Set on a wire tray somewhere warm.
- Make the cheese sauce - toss the cheese with the cornflour then heat it gently in the evaporated milk in a saucepan until melted and bubbling - you should have a smooth cheese sauce.
- Serve the chicken spirals sliced, with chips, covered in delicious cheesy sauce.
- Yum!
