How to Make You Won T Believe They Are Baked Chicken Fingers

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly brush a baking sheet with cooking spray or 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
  3. Cut 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 4-5 strips each (approximately 12-15 strips total).
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Add the chicken strips to the yogurt mixture and toss to coat completely. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
  6. Crush 2 cups of cornflake crumbs (about 2 cups) into a large plate or shallow dish.
  7. One at a time, dredge each chicken strip in the cornflake crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  8. Arrange the chicken fingers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes.
  10. Flip the chicken fingers and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
