  2. When cooled, press the chicken thighs in the flour mixture, remove and tap lightly to remove excess flour, then dip in the beaten egg, remove and drop into the breadcrumb mixture ensuring the chicken is well coated.
  3. Set aside for cooking later.

  7. Place the chips in the chip pan basket and lower into heated oil (180°F/350°F), fry until golden and fluffy in the centre, approximately 10 minutes.
