A healthier and oil-free alternative to chicken nuggets
Method
• Preheat oven to 375oC and cover a baking pan with cooking spray.
• Whisk all the ingredients (except the corn flour mixture) together in a bowl and add the chicken pieces to the mixture.
• Prepare the corn flour by mixing it with water.
• Coat the chicken with corn flour and transfer it onto a large pan, drizzled with very little oil. Sauté the chicken at medium-heat for about four minutes, or until it becomes brown in colour.
• Once fried, transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake it for about 20 to 25 minutes, until it is cooked through.
• Garnish the shots with sesame seeds and serve it alongside a dollop of coleslaw.

Method
• Prepare the coleslaw mix by combining the mayonnaise, lemon juice and Dijon mustard in a large serving bowl.
• Season the mix with salt and pepper as desired, and mix thoroughly.
