Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. To make the BB Q sauce, put all the ingredients in a pan with 6 tbsp water, and allow to bubble and reduce for 5 mins.

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, put the mayonnaise in a bowl with the chicken and stir well to coat. Mix the crumbs and Weetabix with some seasoning. Tip onto a plate and use the crumbs to coat the chicken. Spread out the chicken pieces on a baking tray and bake for 10 mins until tender but still juicy. Serve with the BB Q sauce and chips or salad.

A little bit spicy, and we would make it again comment from a 7 year old but the younger brother didn’t like the smell in the house. But overall a very nice recipe for barbecue sauce.

Wanted something quick and simple. Came out great. Used vegan mayonnaise and panko breadcrumbs. Crispy on outside and moist/tender inside. Will definitely make again.

Great way to avoid the egg dipping (plus we'd run out of eggs), but I used panko breadcrumbs instead of Weetabix. And ground up rice crispies on two of them when we ran out of panko breadcrumbs. All good! Didn't crisp up as much as I'd have liked so I switched to grill at the end.

Just made this right now. The sauce - tastes great but doesnt need so much water, took ages to reduce, and finally thickened after I refrigerated it (after lunch was finished!), best to add only 2 tbsp and then judge by eye. One thing though - all the ingredients are in TBSP, but the sugar is in…

Didn't make the nuggets so comments are for sauce only. Agree that the recipe has too much water. Took a lot longer than five minutes to reduce! Might reduce the paprika in future - personal taste - it's a little too 'smoky' for me! Nice easy method though, with store cupboard ingredients.
