What kid doesn’t like chicken fingers? I’ve experimented with a few different techniques, trying to find one that yields a nice “breading” while being easy enough to tackle for a meal mid-week. My kids like this seasoning mix, but if yours is super sensitive to spice, you might want to leave out the coriander and cumin. Or maybe add your favorite spice instead!
