Chicken Fingers with Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 1/2 cups panko crumbs or dried breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 bunches cilantro, for garnish
- Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce with Horseradish, for serving
- Preheat the oven to 425F.
- Cut each chicken breast on the diagonal into 7 strips.
- Mix the egg, mustard, and cayenne pepper together in a shallow bowl and toss the chicken strips to coat them.
- In another bowl, mix the panko, Parmesan, cilantro, and cumin.
- Add half the chicken pieces and toss to coat them well.
- Line 2 baking pans with parchment and arrange the breaded chicken on the pan, leaving some space between the chicken pieces so that they will brown nicely.
- Drizzle with the butter.
- Repeat the process with the rest of the chicken.
- Bake the chicken fingers until nicely colored and firm to the touch, about 25 minutes.
- For even browning, it helps to rotate the pans halfway through baking.
- Remove from the oven and cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve the chicken fingers arranged on a platter, garnished with cilantro, with a bowl of the dipping sauce.
