Crispy Coated Chicken Strips | Slimming World Recipe | FatGirlSkinny.net

Delicious potato chip crisps create the perfect crunchy salty low syn coating for chicken strips. Loved by all the family and really easy to create.

I am constantly on the look out for new ways to coat my chicken without breaking the Syn allowance. I saw a similar recipe to this on a cooking programme last week so I thought I would try to create something Slimming World friendly and I think I have come up with the perfect recipe with a bit of crunch. 

The best thing about this recipe is that the chicken stays nice and juicy inside whilst the crisps create a delicious salty crispy coating. We used just 1 bag of Walkers baked crisps which are 5.5 Syns making this recipe officially 2.75 Syns per serving but lets call it 2.5!!

I have used chicken breast for this recipe but it would also work with chicken thighs. You may just need to adjust the cooking time by a few minutes less. Also I have used the Ready salted Walkers crisps but fill ya boots and change it up.. I think this would be very interesting with Salt and Vinegar too 🙂
