🎶 I feel like chicken tonight... 🎵

The young ones probably won't get the reference, but anywho...

Boneless chicken thighs coated with delectable MexiCrust by Simon Gault (available from Gault's Deli St Johns and online), served with creamy miso mushroom udon. Hump day comfort food in a bowl 🥣 🤤

(The coating mix is his take on KFC, but also slightly spicy.)
