Handy Tips
Serve popcorn chicken as a party snack, or with veggie sticks as part of dip platter. If serving as part of a meal, serve with salad or veggies.

  1. Combine the chicken and yoghurt and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  2. Mix together flours, parmesan, seasoning, mustard and garlic powder.
  3. Shake excess yoghurt off the chicken and toss in the seasoned flour until well coated. Shake any excess flour off the chicken and arrange in a single layer on a baking paper lined oven tray.
  4. Spray with olive oil and bake at 200°C for 15-20 minutes, shaking once or twice until golden and chicken is cooked through. Cool on tray for 5 minutes before serving.
  5. For dipping sauce, combine yoghurt, mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl and serve with popcorn chicken and salad or veggies.
