1 Video | Photo: Crispy Chicken Fingers Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut across into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup lowfat buttermilk
- Cooking spray
- 4 cups whole-grain corn cereal (recommended: Corn Chex or cornflakes)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- Honey-Mustard Sauce, recipe follows
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the chicken and buttermilk in a shallow dish. Cover and chill for 15 minutes.
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Put the cereal in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Transfer the crumbs to a shallow dish. Season the chicken with the salt and a few grinds of pepper. Dip each piece of chicken in the cereal to fully coat and arrange on the baking sheet. Bake until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Leave the chicken on the baking sheet to cool slightly. It will become crispier.
Serve with the mustard sauce.
Honey-Mustard Sauce:
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
3 tablespoons honey
In a small bowl, stir together the mustard and mayonnaise until smooth. Stir in the honey.
Yield: 1 1/4 cups

Made this tonight and the chicken fingers were moist and crispy. Loved the honey mustard sauce. Will be making gain soon. Bye Bye fast food restaurants! Used less dijon mustard and a little more honey.

This recipe was really good, turned out great! The only thing is that it taste kinda of plain and so for next time I think I may use a bit of honey cereal to give it a honey taste.
The honey mustard was okay. I defiantly recconmend this recipe for further use.

This recipe is very good! My husband enjoyed it. The buttermilk kept the chicken really moist. A winner. I used corn flakes as there was no Chex to be found (I recently moved to Wales from St. Louis, MO. Forgot to buy honey, so will try the dip next time. I added a little bit of breadcrumbs to keep my mixture together, but I think it would be better without it.
