Categories     Chicken

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

Canola oil cooking spray
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 large egg whites
1 pound chicken tenders

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 475°F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Set a wire rack on the baking sheet and coat it with cooking spray. 2. Place almonds, flour, paprika, garlic powder, dry mustard, salt and pepper in a food processor; process until the almonds are finely chopped and the paprika is mixed throughout, about 1 minute. With the motor running, drizzle in oil; process until combined. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish. 3. Whisk egg whites in a second shallow dish. Add chicken tenders and turn to coat. Transfer each tender to the almond mixture; turn to coat evenly. (Discard any remaining egg white and almond mixture.) Place the tenders on the prepared rack and coat with cooking spray; turn and spray the other side. 4. Bake the chicken fingers until golden brown, crispy and no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes.

These chicken fingers were delicious! The almond crust was a perfect complement to the chicken and the dipping sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not a big fan of almond-crusted chicken fingers, but I have to say that these were pretty good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the almond crust was nice and crispy.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken fingers came out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I tried making these chicken fingers in the air fryer and they turned out great! They were crispy and juicy, just like the ones you get from a restaurant.

These chicken fingers were a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the breading.

I'm not a big fan of chicken fingers, but I have to say that these were delicious. The almond crust was a nice change of pace from the usual breading.

These chicken fingers were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would try them again with a different breading.
