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!!!

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!

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.

Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Ha Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Halloween in my kitchen. I don’t do much Halloween decorations, but I just love to add it to the kitchen. Every time I go to the kitchen it makes me smile.
🦇
To add Fall or Halloween you don’t need to add a lot, just a few touches here and there. I will give a full tour in stories and tag a few items. Majority of the decor came from @krumpetshomedecor and the towels and bat banner from @theblessedpeach 
🦇
Have the best day!

Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s sta Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s starting to feel like Fall here in Northern California. The mornings and evenings are feeling crisp. I can’t get over that we are in the middle of September. Where did the Summer go?
🎃
I’m sharing with you the corner of my living room where I store my pumpkins that I grew before I can take them outside. It’s been too warm for them and I want them to last through October. They have been doing well, as they have been here since the middle of August. 
🎃
I’m excited because this Saturday our local pumpkin patch will be opening. They have a huge variety of pumpkins and very inexpensive too. I’ll be stocking up. I just love this time of year.
🎃
Have a wonderful day!

Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reach Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reached out to me asking if I am okay. I am doing just fine. I’ve taken a little break from posting here because I have been busy on the dogs Instagram page. It’s hard to keep up on both. The dog page is so busy with birthdays, events and engagement. They have a busier social life than me. 
🩵
I am sharing with you the last view of my kitchen before it is filled with Halloween. I spent 6 hours yesterday cleaning all the cabinets, appliances, sink and floor. I even did the windows. It sure tired me out. I’m not as young as I used to be. But it is so sparkly clean. I did put up my Halloween and I can’t wait to share with you. The dining room is the next room to conquer.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page today because I got the best gift in the whole world and it even came in the mail on my birthday. How did @downlitebedding know? They are so good!
🐾
Downlite Bedding sent me the EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter. Isn’t it beautiful? It’s so soft, cozy, hypoallergenic and it makes me so happy. 
🐾
The comforter is 400 thread count, it has moisture wicking and cooling technology to help regulate body temperature, which is perfect since I get warm in the summer with all my hair and I like to be cool when I’m sleeping. A big plus is the comforter is white, I hide very well in it. It’s hard to see me. So mama can’t catch me on her bed. 
🐾
The EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter also has a Scotchguard stain release fabric and machine wash and dry. It’s truly an amazing comforter.
🐾
Mama let me do this takeover today because she knows that I love @downlitebedding as much as she does. She said she has never seen me get so excited as I do when we get Downlite Bedding and pillows in the mail. How can I not get excited? It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
🐾
Downlite Bedding was kind enough to give us a 20% discount:  DYGEN20 
🐾
Have a great day and happy napping!
🐾
❤️Samuel

Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I took a couple weeks ago. My garden really overgrew this season. I need to do some major work in it, but with the heat, it’s just unbearable to be out there too long.
🌼
I had a lot of zinnias self-seed this season which is cool, but they kind of took over. They crowded out some plants, so I need to get in there and pull some out. Plus being so crowded, they got powdery mildew. Yuck!
🌼
I’m thinking for the Fall making this area a little harvest pumpkin area. We will see. I have grand ideas in my head, but I don’t always follow through. lol
🌼
How your garden growing? I lost all my potted plants from the heat. 😩

Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcut Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcuterie setup for my husband and I. This is something that I just love to do. I could just eat this type of meal all day long. 

I am sharing the “All White Collection” from @bzaar_wholesale. Each piece to the collection is so elegant and can be used all year round and would be gorgeous around the holidays.

The tray is made of marble with beautiful gold handles. The cheese knives are gold with solid marble handles and compliments the tray perfectly.

I used the marble flower shaped bowl for putting chocolates, but would be so stunning to use on your coffee table, side table and more.

The cake stand is has a marble base with Mother of Pearl edging and has a glass lid to go over the top. I will be putting my cakes and cookies on it in the future, but for now I used it to place my bruschetta.

@bzaar_wholesale has amazing products for your home, great pricing and global shipping. The link is in my bio.

Do you like making charcuterie boards? What do you add to yours?

Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I can’t resist putting out some Fall. Especially when you get new decor from @12timbers.  You would laugh if you came into my living-room. Half my room is Fall, the other half is still coastal blues. lol I’ll eventually change it all out.
🍂
Let’s talk the art work. Isn’t it stunning? My husband never says anything about my decor, but he keeps talking about how much he likes the framed art from 12 Timbers. I agree, it’s so beautiful. It reminds me of when I lived back east and we would go to Letchworth Park in NY. The colors are stunning and goes perfectly with the burnt orange color that I’m using this season.
🍂
I just adore the wooden cut out pumpkins from @12Timbers. When I look at them they make me smile. The orange wooden leaf is the perfect piece to bring everything together. This gets me so excited for Fall decorating. Now to finish the rest of the living room.
🍂
12 Timbers is so kind to give me a discount code. It’s good until Saturday at midnight. The code is PBANDP15.
🍂
Have the most beautiful day!

Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignett Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignette. Notice anything that seems a tad early? It’s my first pumpkin from my garden. Can you believe it? They started to grow early this season so it’s time to start picking. Unfortunately the massive one I showed you a couple weeks ago didn’t make it. It collapsed in the middle. That makes me sad, but at least I have more pumpkins growing.
🎃
I really had fun bringing out some Fall decor. Fall is not my favorite season, as I love Spring and Summer, but Fall is my favorite to decorate for.
🎃
I wanted to share with you my new reversible blocks from @krumpetshomedecor. Aren’t they cute. They would look so pretty on a shelf. The one side says Fall and the other side says Boo! The two wooden pumpkins are also from Krumpets Home Decor.
🎃
The Fall blocks are the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.
🎃 
What is your favorite season to decorate for?

Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is a nice cold glass of lemonade. I like it a tad sour over sweet. It gives you the zippys in your mouth. I do love a good homemade lemonade, but once in awhile I like to cheat and just get my favorite store brand and add some freshly cut lemons and a few sprigs of mint. It then looks homemade when it’s not.
🍋
This is my outdoor dining area. I put the tablecloth over the table and have kept it like that all summer. I love my table, but being black, it’s extremely hot when you touch it. Plus it has water spots from last year which is annoying. Not sure how to get rid of them? 
🍋
What is your favorite summer drink? Have a wonderful day!
