These Mexican-style chicken fingers aren't breaded with regular breadcrumbs, but with crushed tortilla chips. Try to find low-salt chips, as the chicken will be coated in mayonnaise first. Bake the chicken fingers in the oven for a crispy exterior, just like deep-fried chicken fingers, but without the oil. Serve with refreshing coleslaw and pickled onions.

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.

1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 medium red onions, sliced ​​into 0.5 cm thick circles.
