I was looking for an easy, healthy way to fix chicken fingers that my 4 yo would like. This is what I came up with. Very mild ranch/chili flavor. If you like hotter, please add more hot sauce and or cayenne pepper. If you chose to do this on boneless breasts, increase cook time to 30 mins. Note: Prep time does not include marinade time.

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken fingers are crispy, double coat them in the breadcrumb mixture. First, dip them in the egg wash, then coat them in the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this process to create a thick, crunchy coating.
- Use panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch. Panko breadcrumbs are larger and flakier than regular breadcrumbs, which results in a crispier coating.
- Season the chicken fingers generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
- Bake the chicken fingers at a high temperature (400°F) for 10-12 minutes. This will help to create a crispy coating and juicy chicken.
- Serve the chicken fingers with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, honey mustard, and barbecue sauce are all popular choices.
Conclusion:
Crunchy ranch chicken fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are sure to be a hit with kids and adults alike. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
