1 teaspoon of mixed herbs
½ teaspoon of chilli
½ teaspoon of Chinese spicy
¼ teaspoon of pepper
½ teaspoon of thyme

Preparation:
Combine all of the herbs and spices with the breadcrumbs in the TM or in a big bowl
Steam chicken for in the varoma 20 mins speed 4 (i used boiling kettle water)
I cooked carrots and rice in the basket while steaming the chicken
Let cool and remove the skin (optional) ........cool i mean when you can handle it.
In the clear lid add the cool chicken and drizzle it with olive oil ,and give it a bit of a rub
Crumb 1 leg at times, Drizzle with olive oil again and bake @ 180 uncovered until a nice golden colour.

Tips/Hints:
 
If you have crumbs remaining, add a little egg and milk to the breadcrumbs and makes some fritters.
When kids were young, I only made them with breadcrumbs, every couple of weeks or so I would add 1 new herb or spice.

Please let me know if there is a recipe like this one and I shall remove it.

CP - they all loved it, so we'll be making it again. I used all the spices as per the recipe. In the steaming basket we had carrots and potatoes, on the top tray in Varoma was broccolini. They raved about the roasted beetroot too so thanks for suggestion.

Here's what I did:

2 x largish beetroot wrapped in foil and put in pre-heated 200oC oven for 45 mins.
Unwrap and peel skin and take off stalk. Cut into quarters.
Sprinkle sea-salt, lemon juice and chopped parsley over and serve.

I didn't know what I was going to make for tea, but I think I do now. Is that beetroot, and some mushrooms at the back sprinked with toasted pinenuts. Looks very delish

[fundj&e]

if you have time you do not have to steam the chiken just place in a  pan a cover very well with foil bake for 1/2 then take foil off
