Crap, wanted to bread chicken and have no eggs. Can I use olive oil?

[SunshineThroughMyWindows]

Or do I need to go all the way out for an egg?

You can use watered down mayo if you have any. Failing that milk should do.

Don’t think oil would work. Maybe buttermilk and spiced flour? Rather than breaded? (Whole milk plus lemon makes buttermilk I think...)

Milk and oil don't stick that well - dh has an egg allergy and i have never found a decent breadcrumb glue replacement

Mayo works well.

I’ve used mayo before

Maybe some mustard mixed in mayo would be extra tasty

Pesto works

Milk or yoghurt both work

I'll give the mayo a go, never thought of that!

Melted butter, milk or yoghurt (plain!) All work.

flour instead of bread?

or flour and water = batter, instead?
