Healthy Homemade Chicken Fingers

We try to eat healthy....my husband is the driving force behind this and I

really appreciate his support (and sometimes nagging) in this area!

We rarely eat fast food.....it's expensive and my kids all realize its

lack of nutritional substance!

But they do love chicken fingers.....so my hubby devised a way to make

chicken fingers healthy and delicious!

I start with Panko bread crumbs.....I didn't know what Panko was until

about a year ago....Panko adds such yummy flavor! 
You can find it in your grocery aisle with the other bread crumbs...usually next to the bread.

I apologize that I don't have pictures of this next part, but I 

take my piece of trimmed chicken and roll it in flour.....sometimes I will use

wheat flour or even oat flour.....the Panko disguises the taste of this healthier option for flour!

Next, I dip the flour-coated chicken in a bowl of egg whites....and then I roll it in 

the Panko breadcrumbs....

The unhealthiest part of chicken finger is frying.....I don't fry them in a "depth" of oil...

Instead, I pour about 3-4 Tablespoons of olive oil to coat my pan and fry them

in the olive oil.....the olive oil gives it such a better flavor!

If I am frying a lot of chicken, I will need to keep refreshing the oil in my

skillet, but I only ever put enough oil to coat the bottom....

For a dipping sauce, we usually use a healthy option of 

Honey Mustard salad dressing.

I love to serve these with a big salad and fresh pineapple...
