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!!!

    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!

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
