Preparation

First, whisk the eggs and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Trim the chicken breasts and cut them diagonally into 5-6 finger-thick strips (fingers).
Season the chicken fingers with salt and pepper.
Put the flour in a deep plate and coat the chicken fingers evenly on all sides, carefully tapping off any excess flour.
Dip the floured chicken fingers completely in the beaten egg.
Place the LEIMER breadcrumbs in a deep plate, remove the chicken fingers from the egg, allow to drain briefly and coat well with breadcrumbs, pressing down gently.
Fry in sufficient fat over medium heat in a pan or deep fryer (175°C) until crispy.
Drain briefly on kitchen paper and serve while still hot.

Enjoy the crunchy chicken fingers with crispy fries, a hearty dip and a fresh salad.

Tip for more variety:

For a change, season the chicken strips with Indian curry and serve with pineapple chutney, or vary the seasoning in American Western style and dip in smoky BBQ sauce.
