Cooking Steps

1

• Slice pear into thin sticks. Place chicken between two sheets of baking paper. Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until an even thickness, about 1cm. • In a shallow bowl, combine Aussie spice blend, the plain flour and a good pinch of salt and pepper. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and shaved Parmesan cheese. • Dip chicken into the flour mixture to coat, then into the egg, and finally in panko mixture.

• In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat the base over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken until golden and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

• In a large bowl, combine Dijon mustard, the white wine vinegar, the brown sugar and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Add pear and slaw mix. Toss to coat.

TIP: Use less Dijon mustard if you're not a fan! Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the slaw!
