Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan. Season the chicken lightly with ½ teaspoon of the smoked paprika. Brush over the ginger and garlic purées.

2. Crush the cornflakes in a freezer bag, and season with the remaining smoked paprika and the garlic granules. Dip the chicken in the beaten egg followed by the cornflakes. Press in to adhere.

3. Transfer the coated chicken to a baking tray and bake in the centre of the oven for 25 minutes. If using an air fryer, place the coated chicken in the air fryer (straight into the drawer, or on a silicone liner) and cook at 185°C for 18 minutes.

4. While the chicken cooks, mix together all the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl, and set to one side.

5.In a separate bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce and gochujang paste. Cover and blast in the microwave for 30 seconds so that it is warm.

6. Once warmed, brush the barbecue and gochujang sauce over the cooked chicken, top each breast with a cheese single and return to the oven for a further minute.
