Chicken sticks are morsels of breaded meat, crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside, reminiscent of the famous American chicken nuggets in terms of flavor and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ready in just a few minutes, and loved by the little ones who will love to munch them in front of the TV, they are prepared quickly and easily by cutting the chicken breast into strips about 2 cm wide, then dipping them in lightly beaten egg and then passing them in the breadcrumbs , mixed with grated Parmesan and mixed aromatic herbs chopped with a knife. Once ready, you can choose whether to cook them in a convection oven at 200 \u00b0C for about 15 minutes or whether to fry them in boiling seed oil until they are golden and fragrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this recipe we offer them in both versions, one light and the other more enjoyable, to be accompanied according to personal taste with appetizing homemade dressings : from the more classic ketchup or mayonnaise , to pink sauce , ranch or barbecue .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Excellent to bring to the table as a second course , together with a portion of fried potatoes or a lighter seasonal mixed salad, chicken sticks are also perfect to be eaten as a delicious finger food at aperitif time or at a buffet of party. If you prefer, you can enrich the breading with crumbled cornflakes or with your favorite spices: smoked paprika, curry, turmeric, cumin\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
