Ultimate Chicken Fingers

Submitted by Color Guard Mom

"I found this on the Bisquick box and we LOVE it! We have it two to three times a week with a large garden salad and light honey dijon mustard - mmm, mmm. One thing I do in addition to the recipe is I spray the pieces with pam cooking spray before putting in the oven. I also bake for 10 minute and then flip and bake for 5 to 10 more.

I served these last night and they were a huge hit! I have already added the recipe to my cookbook software in "Our Family Favorites" cookbook. The only changes I made were to omit the melted butter and I brined the chicken tenders with 1/8 c. of kosher salt and water for a few hours prior to baking. I usually always brine poultry because it makes such a huge difference in flavor and the meat is always so moist and tender, never dry and tough. I served these with some BBQ and Buffalo dipping sauces. I also broke out the deep fryer and made some homemade french fries. Fabulous! I will definitely make some to put in the freezer for quickie meals. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This was just okay to me. I think it was very bland. I used a full teaspoon of garlic powder, paprika and added about 3/4 tbsp of black pepper. There was also way too much of the bisquick/cheese mix- if I made again, I would use 1/2- 3/4 of whats stated. Mine took 6 minutes per side and were tender. Thanks

Loved this! Quick and easy, tasty too. The boys gobbled it down! I made two seperate batches, one for me and DH with some cayenne and white pepper in the bisquick mix,a nd one plain. For the bisquick I used some leftover Bisquick Clone Recipe #12648 that I had stashed int he freezer. Perfect! Served with green beans and mashed potatoes. Thanks for posting!

Wow, are these yum, yum, yum. The bisquick is the perfect breading for these fingers. The only deviance I made was to use spray butter instead melting butter and drizzling. A new keeper!!! Made for HolidayTag.
