Slimming World Chicken Kiev Recipe

One of my most favourite meals is Slimming World Chicken Kiev. They are really tasty, hugely satisfying and feel really indulgent. I love the crispy breadcrumbs, the softness of the cottage cheese and the garlic taste from the filling. It’s a real winner in our household and worth saving syns for or using your Healthy B allowance towards the bread used.

Low syn Slimming World Chicken Kiev

The original recipe we used was from a leaflet I had at my group. The recipe was for four people and as there’s only two of us who eat the meal, we reduced the ingredients to suit two of us. We wanted more filling and more breadcrumbs so we used the original recipe (intended for four) and just divided the syns into two portions. Since then we’ve played around with the recipe and here’s how we cook our garlicky chicken kievs at home.

5. Spray a baking tray with low fat cooking spray
6. Mix together the breadcrumbs and the remaining parmesan cheese
7. Brush beaten egg all over the chicken breasts

What about syns?

I always use my healthy B allowance to allow for the bread in this recipe but if you wanted to syn it, the bread would be 6 syns per piece of bread. Always check the syns allowance to protect your own weightless.

The 3 tablespoons of parmesan cheese works out roughly to 25g which is 5 syns.

If using Healthy B allowance and dividing recipe up for two people: 2.5 syns per chicken breast. If not using Healthy B allowance for the bread and sharing the recipe between two people: 5.5 syns per chicken breast

We serve our chicken kievs with synfree actifry chips or vegetable rice and a side salad. Enjoy!
