Chicken Fingers

Phase 2

Makes 4 servings (2 to 3 strips each)

If you can't find whole-wheat bread crumbs, make your own: Toast a slice of whole-wheat bread in a 300°F oven until dry, about 10 minutes. Pulse in food processor until fine crumbs form.

Ingredients
3 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 eggs
1/2 cup whole-wheat bread crumbs
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
1. Trim excess fat from chicken. Lay pieces on counter; cover with parchment or wax paper. Pound each piece to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Cut each piece into 3 equal strips.

2. Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, combine crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper.

3. Working with one piece at a time, dip both sides of strip into egg mixture. Transfer to crumb mixture; pat both sides of chicken with crumbs. Set strips on a wire rack to air-dry.

4. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add strips and cook, 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crisp. Serve hot.
