Breaded Chicken Fingers

February 1, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 21 Comments

Hi Everyone!

So far this week is going pretty good, and were half way through it!  Yah! Just to give you an update, I had my physical on Friday my results came in today and they said everything is normal.  Normal, me normal?  Huh, that’s new!  🙂

For workouts, I have been doing my kickboxing and strength training at least five times a week.  The weekends I have given myself a break, especially since I have been working on updating my blog.  I am happy to report this month I lost 2lbs.  I am 3lbs. away from my weight I had in November.  Dam, December was hard on me.  I have been eating more natural foods, and I haven’t had to many cookies, still making them, but more healthier.

Today’s recipe is breaded chicken fingers.  I made they wonderful little tenders with corn flakes.  I like cornflakes better than bread crumbs because you get more of a crunch and it tastes pretty close to being fried.


I used 1lbs of chicken breasts, I cut them horizontally and then I cut them into strips.  Dipped in egg whites and then the cornflakes mixture.  Bake for about 20 minutes and there done.  These would be so perfect for a party, like the Super Bowl.

For dips, I used ranch dressing and of course Franks Hot Sauce.  When I think chicken fingers, the first thing that comes to mind is Franks Hot Sauce!  Yum!!!  Check out my dinner plate!  Oh and those are Alexia Sweet Potato Waffle Fries!  I love them!!

Breaded Chicken Fingers

Ingredients:

1 lbs. boneless chicken breasts

1 egg white

1 Tbsp. water

1 1/2 cups cornflakes,crushed

2 tsp. Parmesan cheese

1/4. tsp italian seasoning

1/4 tsp. paprika

1 dash cayenne pepper

cooking spray

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or line the bottom with foil and place a cookie rack on top and spray with cooking spray, set aside

In a shallow bowl add egg whites and water

In another shallow bowl add cornflakes, cheese, and seasonings, stir until combined

Cut chicken breasts horizontally and then cut into strips.

Dredge the chicken in egg whites, then dip into cornflake mixture. Place on baking sheet. Do the same for all the chicken.

Bake for 18 minutes or until chicken is done.

Serving Size: 2.5 pieces each (I got 10 tenders total)

Calories per serving (4 oz):  170,  Fat:  2.4,  Cholesterol:  66,  Sodium:  215,  Potassium:  13,  Carbs:  9.8,  Fiber:  0,  Sugar:  .08,  Protein:  28.5

The calories for one tender is 68, not too Shabby!!!

These fingers were a hit for dinner, they were all gone in a matter of minutes.  There super easy to make too!!  If you have the time, you could soak the chicken overnight or for a few hours in buttermilk with hot sauce added for more of a Kentucky Fried Chicken taste.  I have done that and it’s so good, chicken is super tender, but tonight I didn’t have time.  If you do soak them, you can omit the egg whites and just dip the chicken in the cornflake mixture.

I am having so much fun with making these appetizers, hmm what can I make next?  Well my Friends, time for dinner cleanup, yuk!  Have a great day!!!

Funny January is your rough month, normally thats my going to do it month, but it’s February now and I already broke out my cranberry biscotti that I had in my freezer. So stupid, why do I torcher myself? Funny how we do that!

    Always on the look out for something healthy my 5 yr old daughter will enjoy. She doesn’t like most of my chicken recipes! Going to try these minus the cayenne. Thanks for sharing and good luck with the weight loss. I have been struggling to get back into my workouts since the Holidays too!!!

      Oh I am sure your daughter will love them. Crispy finger food is the best! Plus it makes good use for crumbs at the bottom of the cornflakes box that no one eats. 🙂

    I am really into making homemade chicken fingers as well. Not a fan of the boxed version with cheap chicken and a zillion ingredients. I really need to do the combo of hot sauce and ranch next time!

      I’m not either, I like the homemade stuff. The ingredients in some of the packaged stuff is weird. Do you ever look at breaded fish? It say fish parts, yup it actually uses the word fish parts. How gross is that? I’ll take homemade anytime!

    Oh. My. God. Will you come over tonight and make these for me? Seriously. It’s worth a plane ticket from CA to Chicago! 🙂 I suppose if that doesn’t work I can make them myself…And I think I need to immediately. They look absolutely delicious! And your photos are beautiful!

    I haven’t played around with using cornflakes instead of breadcrumbs, but I wouldn’t turn these down if there was Frank’s on the side!

    These look SOOOOO good! I’m gonna substitute rice cereal, as we have no corn flakes. Thanks for sharing!

      Let me know how they turn out with rice cereal! I’m curious!

Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target. 
🐰
Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
