There is nothing tastier that our Mumma’s Chicken Nibbles - For many years, Lynda (our mum) made her famous Honey chicken nibbles for family dinners. We knew as soon as we got home from school that she was cooking them because the smell just instantly hit our spot of happiness and excitement. 


They are delicious, they were sweet and sticky, they are mouth-watering and always left us fighting over who got to take the leftovers to school the next day.    

Manuka South Manuka Honey + Cheese

However, we were never allowed to know the recipe! Mum kept it top secret from us all and would say ‘If I tell ya ill have to kill ya’. Even once we all moved out, she still would not let go of this secret recipe.


Last month for International Women’s Day something special happened… Lynda shared the recipe with us.

So here we have it, Lynda’s Top Secret Honey Chicken Nibble Recipe – exclusively for you!
