Cheesy Chicken Parmigiana Tenders

• Meanwhile, heat a small saucepan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chopped tomatoes, the butter and brown sugar and stir to combine. • Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Season to taste.

• While the sauce is simmering, place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a shallow bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a generous pinch of pepper. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs. • Coat chicken first in the spice blend, followed by the egg and finally the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a plate.

Little cooks: Kids can help with cracking and whisking the egg.

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. When oil is hot, cook chicken until golden, 2 minuteseach side. • Transfer chicken to a second lined oven tray. Top each piece with the tomato sauce, then sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese. • Bake chicken until cheese has melted and chicken is cooked through, 8-12 minutes.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

• While the chicken is baking, thinly slice apple. • In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Add apple and baby leaves, toss to coat and season to taste.

Little cooks: Help with prepping and tossing the apple salad.
