  • ½ tbsp minced chives
  • ½ tbsp lemon juice

To Serve

  • Stir together aioli ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Coat marinated chicken pieces in homemade shake ‘n bake. Place on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Serve on rolls spread with aioli and topped with lettuce, sliced tomatoes and cheese.

  • For extra crispiness, bake the chicken on an oven proof cooling rack so the air can circulate under the chicken as well.
