Do your kids love a particular food so much that they can literally eat it every day?? My kids LOVE chicken fingers! They will ask me to cook them every day for dinner, and sometimes for breakfast! Anytime we go to a nice restaurant, I try to encourage them to try something different…but they always end up ordering chicken fingers!
I tried to cook my own grilled chicken fingers, but my kids were not impressed…AT ALL! Lol! Even though I had all of the right spices and seasonings, they still missed that crunchy skin, so I thought that I would give homemade chicken fingers another shot!
I decided to make these Crispy Oven Fried Ranch Chicken Fingers for dinner using my secret ingredient, Argo® Corn Starch! Argo® Corn Starch is the leading corn starch brand with over 100 years of quality and trust over multiple generations. This secret ingredient will help you make the crispiest chicken ever!
Corn starch is often used as a thickening agent for sauces and soups. However, when used in your batter to fry or bake chicken, it will leave you with a noticeably crunchy and beautifully browned exterior while sealing in the juices of the chicken! It can also be used as a binding agent in baked goods. Just add corn starch to your batter to get the perfect crispy coating!
When preparing this recipe, I combined my flour, cornstarch, and ranch seasonings to make my crispy batter. I also used a couple of eggs to help my batter stick to the chicken.
Once my chicken was battered, I placed them on a greased baking sheet and baked them for about 20-25 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked. Set your oven to broil and let the chicken fingers cook for an additional 3-5 minutes for that golden-brown coating!
The results will seriously shock you!! These Crispy Oven Fried Ranch Chicken Fingers were possibly the most delicious chicken fingers that I’ve ever tasted! The exterior was crispy and airy, and the chicken remained flavorful and juicy! My kids dove right in and cleaned their plates…. which rarely happens! Lol! Since these Crispy Oven Fried Ranch Chicken Fingers were so easy to make, I won’t mind making them a few days a week! 😊 Be sure to visit Argo® Corn Starch for more inspiration.
