Apparently I am on a three-ingredient kick.
First, it was my three ingredient pumpkin cheesecake mousse yesterday and now it’s three ingredient chicken fingers!
What can I say? I like things simple!
To begin, grab some raw chicken tenders.
You can usually find these alongside the chicken breast meat… and it’s typically cheaper! Win!
Then, grab two bowls. Crack a couple of eggs in one of the bowl and whisk away until you have bowl of yellowy egg goop (that’s what it’s called in the cooking world 😉 ).
Fill the other bowl about a quarter of the way full with Italian breadcrumbs.
Now it’s dredgin’ time!
First dredge each chicken finger in the egg mixture before immediately rolling it in the Italian breadcrumbs. Completely coat the chicken tenders in the breadcrumbs before placing on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake the chicken tenders at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Serve the chicken fingers with your favorite dipping sauce (ketchup, BBQ sauce, honey mustard, etc.).
These chicken fingers are perfect for picky children… or picky boyfriends and husbands. 😉
Ryan, Sadie and I split these chicken tenders between the three of us. We all give them two enthusiastic thumbs up. Well, Sadie doesn’t, but that’s only because she doesn’t have thumbs. 😉

Haha “goop”! Looks delish!
Those look delicious!! 🙂 I love easy ingredient meals!
You gotta try this with panko! I just made my own whole wheat panko and it makes the fingers so much crispier.
do you have cooling racks for baked goods? put them on top of a cookie sheet and bake your chicken tenders on those. that way the bottoms get crispy too.
BRILLIANT!
Not to be a comment creeper, but I came here last night to review the recipe before making these for dinner. I used Tracy’s tip with the cooling rack, and it worked like a charm! Perfectly crispy on both sides. 🙂
Mmmm. I love healthy chicken tenders – I think they taste better than the fried-Mc. Donalds type! 😉
Ahaha doesn’t have thumbs. They look great!
Those sound delicious! Three ingredients sounds like the perfect amount to me 🙂
These look so good — and I love when I see simple recipes like this that have never occured to me 🙂 Maybe I’ll add these to the list for this weekend!
I love chicken fingers, especially when they are healthified! What a fun simple recipe!!!
These look great! 🙂
I’m all about the 3-4-or-5 ingredient meals. Simplicity + I are good friends!
Seriously exactly what I was going to make for dinner! 🙂 Wow! Way to read my mind!
I love making chicken tenders this way! YUM!
mmm chicken fingers are my fave!! sometimes instead of breadcrumbs, i dip them in a bowl of parmesan cheese with dried basil or oregano. It is SOOO good and smells delish while they’re baking 🙂
Those look so awesome! I loveee chicken fingers!
These look delicious. I am sure that these will be a hit with my uber picky husband! Thank-you
Three ingredient recipes are the best!
These look so much better than KFC!
Ahhh…omgosh Julie I made your pumpkin spice cookies last night and I 100% cannot stop eating them. They are so great and seriously super easy peasy to make. Thank you for the recipe! (my co-workers thank you also lol)
Mmm..I love making chicken fingers! They are so simple and always come out tasting great.
We make gluten free chicken strips just like these, and my kiddos eat them up! Yum!
I do the same and love them – but add a good deal of parmesan to the Italian bread crumb mixture. It’s the base for our chicken parmesan dinner.
Hope everything came together for your new honeymoon plans!
You can also do this with corn flakes that you’ve crushed in a food processor. I coat my chicken tenders in dijon mustard instead of egg. It’s really good!
I’ve done this before for chicken parm. So yummy and a lot less fat than the fried stuff!
I do this a lot only I use milk to dredge instead of egg. The chicken turns out so tender! Like Bonnie, I use it in chicken parmesan.
I
can’t
wait
to
make
these.
That is all 😀
I will be making these for the kids tonight!:)
I hope that’s ketchup and not BBQ sauce 😉
looks easy enough…chicken fingers for dinner it is!!
Yummy! I love chicken tenders. I like them better than breast.
just wondering what colour nail polish you are wearing??
oh gosh! it was a long time ago. i cannot remember the exact color, but i think it was made by O.P.I. 🙂
