Crispy Breaded Chicken necks

3-4 Servings ~ 35 minutes
  • 500g chicken necks
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp curry powder

This recipe goes out to those of us here in Zimbabwe and abroad who love chicken necks (mutsipa). Some love this part of the chicken and some despise it.  I personally don’t mind eating it, especially with the way I prepared them here. They would be good as a snack during the day or if you want to include them to be part of a meal, feel free to do so.

Quick Instructions

  1. With your egg (1 large egg) and breadcrumbs (1 cup) ready, season your breadcrumbs with salt (1 tsp), ground black pepper (1/2 tsp) and curry powder (1 tsp).
  2. Give it quick stir to mix everything. Get your chicken necks (500g) and dip them in the egg first then coat them with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Put the oil (3 tbsp) in a oven-proof dish and place your breaded chicken necks in it and grill for about 35 minutes or until golden brown at 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit/ Gas Mark 5. And that’s it, enjoy!
