I almost never buy them pre-cut. I wanted to crumb them because that\u2019s how my family likes to eat them best,\u201d Ms Connor told news.com.au. <\/p>\n<p>Ironically, she didn\u2019t even realise the stroke of genius she was creating until after she did it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought, \u2018How do I make this easier for myself?\u2019 I hit record, chucked them in a plastic container, did a few shakes, and away I went, not knowing the outcome myself\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>Typically, many Aussies prepare the dish with three separate bowls for the flour, egg and breadcrumbs, dipping the chicken in each one individually. <\/p>\n<p>It leads to messy hands and a significantly cramped dishwasher.<\/p>\n<p>By throwing the ingredients one at a time inside a container and shaking between each addition, you wind up with the same chicken result, ready for the stove or airfryer. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an idea she could have gatekept from her 1.4 million followers, but she chose to wing it and share instead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo body likes chicken hands. I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the first who has done this, but I\u2019m glad to be the provider of this hack to the people who needed it most! Happy to be of service,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n<p>And the service has been met with a standing ovation in her comment section.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I feel like a moron using three separate bowls and washing my hands every five seconds,\u201d a user laughed. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo you telling me I have used three bowls for nothing?\u201d another questioned.<\/p>\n<p>A third declared: \u201cStop the f**king bus. Is this for real? I DESPISE crumbing chicken. If this works, I\u2019m going to be so happy AND mad at the same time!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTHIS WAS AN OPTION?\u201d another reacted.<\/p>\n<p>The excited response to her innovative thinking has left Ms Connor completely thrilled. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo many people loved it! I had no idea myself if it would work, so I think people liked the fact that we experienced it together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Crumbed chicken might be an classic staple dinner, but the recipe often leads to a messy kitchen as&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":923372,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[491179,491197,491178,491202,376730,491210,491215,384614,491193,449695,491187,428124,381082,382597,18734,491213,414923,387755,491199,491190,64,491189,491182,63,490791,99,38129,491195,359859,491200,491208,491201,491204,491172,381373,491212,456868,491186,13994,491174,12460,491173,491206,491198,491176,4693,381862,28315,491203,491181,491209,491205,378592,431001,381654,490750,491171,376628,491183,455202,1861,17843,8050,4242,5265,491175,491177,491180,382374,29397,491185,379398,382541,491211,491188,35935,250242,491191,386766,379066,491196,187474,491207,387717,399647,491194,420583,377475,491214,490820,491184,491192,101],"class_list":["post-923371","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-s-trick","tag-a-container","tag-a-few-shakes","tag-a-genius","tag-a-lot","tag-a-messy-kitchen","tag-a-moron","tag-a-mum","tag-a-plastic-container","tag-a-side-dish","tag-a-significantly-cramped-dishwasher-by","tag-a-standing-ovation","tag-a-time","tag-a-user","tag-aims","tag-an-classic-staple-dinner","tag-an-idea","tag-an-option","tag-another-questioned-a-third","tag-another-reacted-the-excited-response","tag-au","tag-aussie-mum","tag-aussie-mum-aimee-connor","tag-australia","tag-beef-curry-lettuce-cups","tag-business","tag-chicken","tag-chicken-hands","tag-colesy13","tag-crumbed-chicken","tag-crumbing","tag-crumbing-chicken","tag-dirty-hands","tag-each-addition","tag-each-one","tag-egg-and-breadcrumbs","tag-even-more-coverage","tag-every-five-seconds","tag-genius","tag-genius-mess-free-chicken-hack","tag-hack","tag-her-1-4-million-followers","tag-her-comment-section","tag-her-innovative-thinking","tag-her-mess-free","tag-job","tag-many-aussies","tag-many-people","tag-mess-free-hack","tag-messy-hands","tag-more-hacks","tag-ms-connor","tag-my-family","tag-my-hands","tag-news-com-au","tag-night-one","tag-no-body","tag-no-idea","tag-now-want","tag-our-new-app","tag-people","tag-real","tag-record","tag-rice","tag-service","tag-some-chicken-pieces","tag-stress-free-way","tag-the-chicken","tag-the-content-creator","tag-the-dish","tag-the-fking-bus","tag-the-fact","tag-the-first","tag-the-flour","tag-the-ingredients-one","tag-the-internet","tag-the-leftovers","tag-the-next-day-the-word","tag-the-outcome","tag-the-people","tag-the-provider","tag-the-recipe","tag-the-same-chicken-result","tag-the-same-time","tag-the-service","tag-the-stove-or-airfryer","tag-the-stroke","tag-the-title","tag-this-hack","tag-this-slow-cooker-red-curry","tag-three-bowls","tag-three-separate-bowls","tag-tiktok"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=923371"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923371\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/923372"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=923371"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=923371"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=923371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
