I LOOOOOVE chicken fingers. This recipe was a savior when I changed to the Keto diet and didn't know how to make my favorite oven fried chicken and chicken fingers. The only thing I did was add paprika, garlic powder and onion powder to the mix before covering the pieces. This is far easier to make than fried chicken/chicken fingers.
