Crispy chicken fingers are a classic favorite, perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack.
These chicken fingers are a classic favorite that I grew up eating. When I was a kid, my mom would make them for dinner with a side of french fries and ketchup. I loved them so much that I still make them today! They're perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack. The key to getting them perfectly crispy is to make sure you coat them in the flour and egg mixture before frying them in the hot oil. The result is a delicious, golden-brown chicken finger that's sure to satisfy any craving.
