Chicken finger baskets are a beloved staple on most fast food menus. Take advantage of this riff that’s oven-baked instead of deep-fried and enjoy the tenders dipped in ranch dressing along with a side of seasoned fries. Coated in tangy mustard and dredged into a spiced oat-mixture, the chicken fingers' flavor is perfect for grown-ups and kids, too. They’ve got enough zing to please an adult palette yet taste familiar enough to get kid-approval. For variety, you may want to also consider serving this homemade version with a few additional dipping sauces like ketchup, barbecue sauce, honey mustard or sweet and sour.
