Step 1
Pre-heat the oven to 350F/180C/gas mark 4.
Step 2
Place the rice cereal in a plastic sandwich bag together with all the dry seasonings and seal the bag shut. Take a rolling pin and use it to roll and mash the rice cereal until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Pour the seasoned, crushed rice cereal in a large mixing bowl, add the chopped fresh herbs and mix well.
Step 4
Place the plain flour and beaten eggs into two separate bowls and line them up next to the bowl of seasoned rice cereal.
Step 5
Next, dip a chicken piece in the flour, coat evenly and shake to dust off any excess. Next dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, and then finally coat the chicken in the cereal mix. Repeat until all your chicken strips have had their triple coating.
Step 6
Remember to wash your hands thoroughly after touching raw meat!
Step 7
Line a baking tray with a wire rack or tin foil and place the coated chicken pieces on top.
Step 8
Place in the oven and cook for 30 minutes until cooked through, golden and crispy (if your chicken strips are quite big they may need a little longer).
