the best chicken fingers ever

[lifetastesbetter]

You wouldn't even guess these are low carb, they taste like you're cheating!!!

Cut up chicken breast into strips.
Dip them in a mixture of beaten egg, a little salt and some pepper to taste.

Then dip them into parmesan cheese (I use the powdery kind, but I have a friend who also says they are just as good with grated parm)

Then deep fry them til golden brown and OMG....heaven!

I make a "honey mustard" type dip that tastes like the real deal, using mayo, mustard and a packet of splenda.

Hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

You can also grind pork rinds and mix it with the parm. cheese. They turn out really crispy. I never thought about the honey mustard trick! I'll give it a shot.

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

I used to think my coworker was so strange to use pork rind as a "breading" when she was doing Atkins. Now guess what I'm going to try for dinner tonight. LOL

I've done fried mushrooms a few times using the egg and then dipping it into crushed pork rinds & soy flour (mixed) just enough to coat. They taste just like the mushrooms from the local pizza place. I made a creamy garlic dressing to go along with it because thats what we eat on ours.

I've done the honey mustard trick too I use it on rolled up ham & cream cheese. Its so good.

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

Did you use a deep fryer or did you pan-fry them?

Re: the best chicken fingers ever

Theese are amazing. I made them tonight. I cannot believe how good they were. I would eat them every night but am afraid because they are fried. for the dipping sauce I just mixed mayo and mustard together (a little more mayo than mustard)...mixed to taste. It was very good as well. Try it if you have not.
