I make breadcrumbs regularly, when I turn off my oven I leave the door slightly open and put slices of broken bread in the oven to dry, I then blitz them and keep the crumbs in an air tight container.
Place a chicken breast into a freezer bag and using a hammer or rolling-pin flatten the chicken breast, to about 1cm thick.
In separate bowls, Eggs (whisked), flour, and bread crumbs, grate the lemons into the bread crumbs.
Dip the chicken first in the flour, shake off any excess, then dip into the eggs and coat with the egg, then dip in the lemon bread crumbs.
Then either fry or grill the chicken breast with Lemon thyme sprinkled on top. I used my “George Forman” type grill.
While that’s cooking chop mint and mix into yoghurt.
Put a salad on a serving plate or better still a chopping board, cut the chicken into slices and arrange on the salad and top with yoghurt.
