Helpful Hints:
|
Thawing chicken is an easy but important step in this recipe. Thaw chicken, and all foods, in the refrigerator. For speedy thawing, the microwave can be used, per the manufacturer's directions. Food should be cooked immediately after thawing this way. Chicken breasts slice easily if they are partially frozen.
This recipe makes a healthy, lower fat version of chicken tenders. Try using barbecue chips or sour cream and onion chips for flavor variety.
The egg plays an important role in this recipe. It holds the chip crumbs to the chicken, and helps create a nice crunchy coating.
Leftover chicken fingers should be refrigerated. They would be great on top of a crisp green salad.

Safety Tip:

Use dry hot pads to take pan from oven.
