Chicken Finger Basket with Fries Recipe

American · Main course · 45 min total

Crispy chicken fingers and golden fries served together in a fun basket, perfect for a casual meal or game day snack.

Ingredients

• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 4 large russet potatoes, cut into fries
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt for fries
• Cooking spray or oil for frying

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper. Place beaten eggs in another bowl, and panko in a third.
3. Dredge each chicken strip in flour, then egg, then panko, pressing to adhere. Place on a plate.
4. Spread potato fries on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Toss to coat.
5. Bake fries for 15 minutes, then flip and bake another 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
6. While fries bake, heat 1/2 inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken fingers in batches, 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
7. Serve chicken fingers and fries together in a basket or on a platter with your favorite dipping sauces.

Tips

• For extra crispy chicken, use a wire rack on the baking sheet instead of paper towels.
• Serve with ranch dressing, honey mustard, or ketchup.
• You can also air-fry the chicken fingers at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway.
