Cajun Chicken Fingers

By Tamipri

Ingredients

• 1 c. cornmeal
• 2 tsp. chili powder
• 1 tsp. dried oregano
• salt and pepper
• 2 large eggs
• 1 lb. chicken tenders
• 6 Tb. vegetable oil

Preparation

Step 1

In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal, chili powder, oregan, 1 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs. Working with one at a time, coat the chicken tenders with the cornmeal mixture, dip into the egg, then coat again with the cornmeal. Transfer to a large plate.

In a large skillet, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium heat. Add half of the chicken and cook, turning once, until golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining oil and chicken tenders.
