Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 450°F (230°C) with two half sheet pans inside. Cut the potatoes into 1 cm fries and toss them with 2 tbsp of the oil and half the paprika.
  2. Spread the fries on one hot pan in a single layer and roast 25 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp at the edges.
  3. Meanwhile coat the chicken fingers in a third of the yogurt with the garlic powder and pepper, then press them into the breadcrumbs mixed with the Parmesan and the rest of the paprika and oil.
  4. Lay them on the second hot pan and bake 12-15 minutes, until golden and they read 165°F (74°C).
  5. Stir the mustard and honey into the rest of the yogurt to dip.
Chef’s tipToss the crumbs with the oil first: dry crumbs stay pale, oiled ones fry gold.
KeepKeeps 3 days. Re-crisp 8 minutes in a 425°F (220°C) oven, not the microwave. Tenders freeze 2 months.
