These chicken strips are coated in polenta or mealie meal which adds an extra crunch and are fried in a small amount of oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients\"><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>250 ml uncooked polenta or mealie meal<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>45 ml dried mixed herbs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd tsp salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Black pepper to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4 chicken breast fillets, cut into thin strips<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>250 ml buttermilk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>45 ml sunflower or olive oil for frying<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method\"><strong>Method<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Mix polenta or mealie meal, dried herbs and salt in a large, shallow dish and season to taste with pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Dip a few chicken strips, one at a time, into the buttermilk and roll in the polenta mixture, coating each strip. (work with two forks to prevent your hands from getting too messy.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Heat the 45 ml oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry chicken strips in batches until just golden brown on both sides and cooked. The thin strips fry quickly, so don\u2019t overcook them as the chicken will become dry. Repeat with the rest of the chicken and oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Serve hot or at room temperature with lemon wedges and a sauce of your choice, such as a sweet chilli sauce. Enjoy the chicken strips with a salad, fresh fruit or left-over veggies like butternut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tips\"><strong>Tips<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Forgo the buttermilk and lightly brush each chicken strip with a little extra oil and then coat and fry as above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Try this recipe with any firm line fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. For a delicious sauce to serve with your chicken strips, season mayonnaise or plain low-fat yoghurt with a little lemon juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-crunchy-lentil-salad\">Crunchy lentil salad <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>250 ml uncooked brown lentils<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd tsp salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 ml dried origanum<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>30 ml sunflower or olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15 ml red wine vinegar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd tsp sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>black pepper to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>45 ml fresh chopped parsley<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3 medium carrots, coarsely grated<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2 tomatoes, halved and sliced<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3 large spinach leaves, shredded<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-method-0\"><strong>Method<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Place lentils, half of the salt and half of the origanum with 3 cups (750 ml) of water in a pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 \u2013 30 minutes or until just cooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Drain lentils, rinse with cold water and drain well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Make the salad dressing. Mix remaining salt and origanum with oil, vinegar, sugar, and season with pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Add the rest of the ingredients to the cold lentils and mix well. Add the dressing just before serving. Pack with some extra fruit for a filling meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tips-0\"><strong>Tips<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>1. This salad will also be perfect for a side dish at a braai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Avocado will be great in this salad. When in season, cut in cubes and add at the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2013 cookingfromtheheart.co.za<\/strong> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These chicken strips are coated

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
