Preparation

1

Add the onion, carrot and coconut oil to a medium, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat on the stove. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion has softened (around 5 minutes). Stir in the garlic and instant oats then pour in the chicken stock, soy sauce, curry powder and honey. Let simmer for 10-15 minutes until the carrot has fully softened. Remove from the heat and blend until smooth.
2

Take 3 wide, shallow dishes – place the instant oats into one of them, the egg into a second, and the breadcrumbs into the third dish. Dip each chicken breast into the instant oats, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs so they’re fully coated.
3

Spray the basket of the Air Fryer with the spray oil then place the coated chicken breast inside. Spray with more oil on top and then air fry for 18-20 minutes at 180˚C, flipping the chicken over halfway through. The coating should be crispy and the chicken should be cooked through (internal temperature of 74˚C (164˚F).
4

Cook the rice according to the directions on the packet.
5

Slice the crispy chicken breasts and serve with the rice, broccoli and sauce.
