So here we are flying through the week again, and as always I am looking for a meal I can have on the table for my family, nice and quick after a long day’s work. This is a great one for the kids to help with, always great as a finger food when you have people over and ideal to over make and pop next week’s portion in the freezer or to take to school / work with a wrap or salad the next day, these always go down a treat with my family and I hope you enjoy them too. In my opinion these are far tastier than any chicken take outs đ
Makes: 4 servings
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Total Time:Â 55 minutes
Ingredients
-
125g/4½oz fresh breadcrumbs using really nutty brown bread
-
2 tsp parsley
-
pinch of salt and pepper to taste
-
4 boneless and skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
-
50g/2oz plain flour
-
3 medium / 2 large free-range eggs,  beaten
-
2 tbsp melted coconut oil
- 4 tbsp of finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 100ml of milk
PREPARATION
- Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5. Oil two baking trays with melted coconut oil.
- Mix the breadcrumbs, parsley in a bowl. add the finely grated cheese and mix well, add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Place the flour in another  bowl.
- Dip the chicken pieces in the milk, then the plain flour, then in the beaten egg and finally coat in the breadcrumbs. Shake off the excess and lay the cheesy chicken fingers on the oiled baking tray. Â This is much easier if you keep one hand clean from the egg and milk for dipping into the flour and bread crumbs.
- Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, turning once. Remove from the oven when completely cooked through and golden-brown all over.
- Serve the cheesy fingers with a variety of dipping sauces, use red sauce, barbecue sauce , the curry dip I used for chips, or any you like best. My family love these with a green salad in summer and with baked chips and beans during the colder months.
Tip: Over prepare these and freeze additional batches (before placing in the oven) in your freezer containers and over cook a few for your lunch the next day, to bring to work with a salad, or in a wrap or for the kids chopped up with some pasta in their lunch boxes.
