These chicken fingers are loaded with a burst of flavor. It is so quick and easy, too. A squeeze of lime makes this recipe, adding a nice freshness and bright note to cut through the heavy spices. An approved ranch or honey mustard dressing would also go nicely as a dip. This recipe is also easily doubled for leftovers or as a family meal.
Pat the chicken fingers dry with a paper towel and place in a large bowl. Add the oil and mix well. Combine all the spices (not lime) and then toss over the chicken, mixing until evenly coated.
TO GRILL: Place chicken over a medium pre-heated grill. Cook 4-5 minutes on both sides or until cooked through (depends on size of tenders). Internal temperature should be 160˚F. Remove onto a platter and let sit for a few minutes, then squeeze fresh lime juice over them.
TO AIR FRY: Preheat air fryer to 400˚F. Place chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket or rack.
Cook for 5 minutes, then turn them over with tongs. Cook another 3-5 minutes, depending on the size of the tenders. Internal temperature should be 160˚F. Remove onto a platter and let sit for a few minutes, then squeeze fresh lime juice over them.
