Ingredients

4 cups cheddar cheese popcorn (75g)

4 slices wholegrain bread, torn

500g chicken tenderloins, trimmed

  2. Add chicken to buttermilk. Mix well. One at a time, toss chicken in popcorn crumbs, pressing on to coat. 

  3. Place chicken on a large oven tray lined with baking paper. Spray both sides with oil.  

  4. Cook in a hot oven (200C) for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to moderate (180C). Remove from oven. Turn chicken over. Return to oven. Cook for a further 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and chicken is cooked.
