Ingredients required are 500g chicken breast, oregano, pepper, salt, garlic powder, paprika, 3 cheese corn thins, 2 eggs, a toasted Aldi brioche bun, 30g pizza sauce, 20g freshly grated mozzarella, parsley flakes.
In order to make the healthy dish, Dez placed the chicken on a skillet and seasoned the meat with oregano, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
He then put the corn thins in a blender with the seasonings and paprika and blended it into a crumbed powder.
Dez emptied the crumbs onto a plate, and cracked two egg whites onto another plate.
The fitness expert then soaked the chicken breast into the egg whites and coated it in the corn thin crumbs.
‘I go on with a bit of light cooking spray before popping it onto the oven,’ he said.
He put the chicken in the oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes, but you can also place it in an air fryer at 190°C for 15-20 minutes.
Dez puts the oven-roasted chicken on a toasted Aldi brioche bun, then tops it off with the pizza sauce, fresh mozzarella, and parsley flakes.
