"Chicken fingers! The ultimate finger food, perfect for dipping.ÂThe challenge is, how to make crispy tender chicken fingers without having to deep fry them? With this baked sesame chicken finger recipe we are first marinating the chicken tenders in buttermilk.ÂThen we dredge the tenders in a breadcrumb mixture with crispy panko breadcrumbs and sesame seedsÂthat have been browned and mixed with a little olive oil so they don’t dry out in the oven.ÂWe bake the tenders while quickly mixing together a spicy sauce made with orange marmalade and sriracha. Not counting the marinating time (which you can do hours in advance if you want), the whole dish comes together quickly. It’s kid-friendly, adult-friendly, and party-friendly. By the way, itÂtook us several tries to land on this particular recipe (my sweetheart can attest to the dry and tough rejects that even he didn’t want to eat), and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. I hope you like it too!..."
