Sometimes I joke about the fact that I have the eating habits of an 8 year old. It might not be that bad, but I really could live off of macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese sandwiches, hot dogs, and chicken fingers. Luckily, the variety of these foods that I eat and generally different than those that I ate when I was 8. I also try to eat them less often.
When Anne posted about these chicken fingers on her blog fANNEtastic Food, I was immediately drawn to them. They seemed easy, and something that I would definitely enjoy. You can find the recipe here.
The recipe called for Erewhon Corn Flakes which unfortunately I couldn’t find at my grocery store, OR Whole Foods, so I used a different brand of corn flakes. (If you use the Erewhon flakes, the recipe is gluten free!)
The recipe was simple, just like a typical chicken finger recipe. They turned out crispy and delicious! What I especially liked about these was the flavor. If I were to make these on my own with no recipe, I probably would have thought to use corn flakes, but the spices that Anne uses are not something that I would have been able to come up with on my own. They were so flavorful and delicious!
Ease: A-, you do have to prepare and coat the chicken, but other than that not difficult at all.
Taste: A+, I really liked these! Crunchy, flavorful crust with tender chicken inside.
Would I make them again? Yeah, I think so! The combination of spices was great, and paired with some frozen veggies, or roasted potatoes they would make a fantastic, easy, meal!
