Well, I don't know if you were looking for kid friendly ones or not but here is one. It's from the American Institute for Cancer Research. They actually are pretty easy to make and pretty good.


Golden Chicken Fingers

Canola cooking oil spray
2 tsp. canola oil
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 cup rolled oats (not quick-cooking)
1 large egg white
1 large or 2 small, whole skinless, boneless chicken breast, about 3/4 lb.
1/2 cup honey mustard
2 Tbsp. low-fat yogurt
2 Tbsp. reduced-fat sour cream

Place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and set it aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, salt, pepper and cayenne. Place the rolled oats in a blender and process until they are coarsely ground. Add the oats to the oil mixture and mix it in with your fingers until the oil is well distributed. Transfer the mixture to a flat plate. In another bowl, whisk the egg white until it is foamy.

Cut the chicken lengthwise into 8 half-inch strips. Dip the chicken into the egg white, then roll it in the oat mixture, pressing with your fingers to help it adhere. Arrange the coated chicken slices on the prepared baking sheet. Coat them with cooking spray.

Bake until the chicken is tender when pierced with a fork and the coating is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the mustard, yogurt and sour cream. Place the bowl in the center of a serving plate. Arrange chicken fingers around the dip and serve.

Makes 4 servings. Per serving: 281 calories, 8 g. total fat (2 g. saturated fat), 29 g. carbohydrate, 26 g. protein, 3 g. dietary fiber, 478 mg. sodium.

I haven't tried it yet, but this one looks really easy to make and sounds good. In the recipes, it's called 'Simple Chicken Cordon Blue.' I'm going to try it soon!!

I just posted this under "favorite ways to eat avocadoes": Dip chicken breasts in egg, then coat in a mixture of cornmeal, paprika, season all (whatever kind of seasonings you like!). Heat 1 Tb-2 Tb olive oil in skillet, add chicken and cook over med-hi. Flip and cook through. Reduce heat, and top each breast with a slice of mozarella and cover the pan so the cheese melts. Top each breast with sliced avocado. Delicious and easy!
