How to Make Buffalo Style Chicken Fingers

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Cut chicken breasts into 3/4-inch x 3-inch strips. (Yields approximately 1.5 lbs of chicken strips)
  3. In a shallow bowl, crush 2 cups of cornflakes. Add 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2/3 cup blue cheese salad dressing, 1/4 cup water, and 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite hot pepper sauce (adjust to your spice preference).
  5. Add the chicken strips to the blue cheese mixture and toss to coat evenly.
  6. Roll each chicken strip in the cornflake mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  7. Place chicken strips in a single layer in two lightly greased 15x10x1 inch baking pans.
  8. Bake one pan at a time for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink and the crumbs are golden brown and crispy.
  9. Remove from oven and transfer chicken to a serving platter.
  10. Serve warm with celery sticks and extra blue cheese dressing for dipping. Enjoy!
