Chicken Fingers With Plum Dipping Sauce
This is a super, easy, quick recipe that tastes great and would make a great finger food as well as a main served with salad. I made mine with panko flakes as I could not get soda crackers here. I also added a little more plum sauce to the ketchup just to suit our tastes. If you want to read more reviews on this one please click here.

4. Add chicken strips to mayo & turn to coat all over.

5. Transfer chicken strips, one at a time, to cracker crumbs, patting crumbs all over the chicken strip.
