Re: the best chicken fingers ever

LOL I'm the same way. Its amazing I even know where my kitchen IS. So I want to make these, but need it spelled out for us "special" cooks.

I can grasp the preperation part, but with my deep fryer - can they go in there??

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

when I fry, I just use a standard nonstick fry pan, med heat. enough oil to cover the bottom half of whatever you are frying. make sure the oil is heated before adding the food. also don't put too much food in the pan at once, overcrowding causes the oil to lose heat and to much steam...your food won't get crunchy...so leave a little space between the pieces.

also, don't move it around alot...allow the food to brown on one side, then turn it over.

for frying I make pork rind "flour" by crushing the rinds in the food processor. you can also add seasonings. for fish, I find the pork rind flavor overpowering so I use parm cheese. you can also get wheat gluten flour which has 2.5 carbs per 1/4 cup.

Just a reminder, if you change the "breading" make sure your ingredients are legal for your rung.

Almond flour would be legal on Rung 3, soy flour on Rung 6, and wheat gluten on Rung 9.

right! the pork rind flour is perfectly good for chicken...not too overpowering and ok for induction...check the ingredients on the package...some pork rinds have carbs from dextrose.

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

This sounds SO fantastic!!

I too would love to know how much mayo and mustard to use, I am horrible at cooking! ahahaha

Oh and another silly question....do you have to use the deep fryer or did you put oil in a pan?? Oh and the chicken is supposed to be raw when you put it in the oil right? OMG I know, I told you I was terrible! LOL

Thanks in advanced!

Definately can have them on induction, just be sure to count the parm cheese towards your cheese allotment =]

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

Did anyone ever decide how much mayo and mustard to use with the 1 pack of splenda?

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

So, I made these last night, and all I can so is OMG!! I am so hooked. I gave them to Savannah, and she is VERY VERY VERY picky, and she loved them. I was so excited. She even liked the Honey mustard I made. I was so amazed. I am going to try doing fried green tomatoes like that tonight. I know for sure she wont eat them, but I sure will. Thank you so much for sharing!!! If Savannah likes it, it must be good
