Lee's Chicken Fingers image

Kiddos are going to go crazy for these homemade chicken fingers. The mix of herbs and spices is subtle but super flavorful. The ginger ale in the tempura batter gives these chicken fingers a slightly sweet taste. You'll never buy frozen chicken fingers again.

These chicken fingers were delicious! I used chicken breasts and they turned out moist and juicy. The breading was crispy and flavorful. I served them with honey mustard and they were a hit with my family. I will definitely be making these again.
