How to Make Almond Crusted Chicken Fingers
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate shallow dish, combine the crushed almonds, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, and salt.
- Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Dredge the egg-coated chicken in the almond mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crust.
- Place the breaded chicken fingers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown and crispy.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey mustard or BBQ sauce.
