Notes

  • Tip 1: Leftover Chicken Fingers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, place them in the oven to retain their crispiness.
  • Tip 2: You can freeze the uncooked breaded chicken fingers for up to three months. Just fry them straight from the freezer, increasing the cooking time slightly.
  • Tip 3: These chicken fingers pair beautifully with crispy fries, a fresh salad, or even a side of macaroni and cheese for a comfort meal.
  • Tip 4: Add different spices or herbs to the breadcrumb mixture to create flavors that excite your palate, like adding cayenne pepper for heat or Italian herbs for a twist.
  • Tip 5: Serve Chicken Fingers as part of a larger meal with your favorite sides for a full experience.
