Our tried-and-true Aussie spice blend saves the day! A new winner of a chicken dinner, this one comes complete with a creamy, herby slaw with a touch of tartness from the apple, plus baked croutons for that crunch factor. The current labour shortages have impacted availability of ingredients across the entire food supply chain. As such, what you receive may be slightly different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Turn to coat. • Place bread chunks on other side of tray. • Bake until chicken is cooked through and croutons are golden, 8-10 minutes.

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: The Aussie spice blend was a standout, and the apple added a lovely fresh crunch to the creamy slaw. Some found the slaw dressing a little mild; adding a vinaigrette, garlic, or a squeeze of lemon helped lift the flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Most found this a genuinely quick and easy midweek meal that comes together with minimal effort.
  • Suggestions: Several reviewers noted the croutons can burn at high heat — watch them closely, or cook them separately in a frying pan with olive oil for a crispier result. An air fryer also worked well for both the croutons and chicken. Some suggested using only half the Aussie spice blend if cooking for kids or those sensitive to stronger flavours, and a few felt slicing the slaw more finely improved the texture.
  • Leftovers: Leftovers kept well and were enjoyed cold the next day, with some tucking the chicken and slaw into a wrap for a great work lunch.
  • Portions: A number of reviewers felt the chicken quantity was a little light for four people, and some would have liked more slaw relative to the croutons.
