Main ingredients
- 1/2 cup Gefen Light Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc or other semisweet white wine
- 1 and 1/4 cups almonds, toasted
- 1/2 cup potato starch
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound chicken cutlets, cut into finger-sized nuggets
Make the Chicken Fingers
Yields about 20 pieces.
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. (Use olive oil to grease it if you don’t use cooking spray on Pesach).
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and wine.
- In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the almonds. Do not grind them too finely. There should be both small and large pieces of almonds.
- In a second small bowl, combine the coarsely ground nuts, potato starch, paprika, garlic powder, and salt
- Dip each chicken finger into the mayonnaise mixture, then coat evenly with the nut mixture. Place on prepared baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken.
- Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
Note: A little dipping sauce goes a long way. I combined 1 cup duck sauce (sugar-free or regular), 3 tablespoons ketchup, and 1½ tablespoons vinegar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Serve warm.
