The Ultimate Chicken Fingers Recipe

These crispy baked chicken fingers are tender on the inside and super crispy on the outside. Coated in a golden breadcrumb mixture, they offer a delightful crunch with every bite, making them a hit for both kids and adults.

Ingredients

1 pound chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray or olive oil for drizzling

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Breading Station: Set up three separate bowls – one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Coat the Chicken: Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, shaking off any excess, then into the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are well coated.
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken fingers on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Lightly spray or drizzle with cooking oil for extra crispiness.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauces.
