Almond Crusted Buffalo Chicken Fingers

Here is my first recipe post.  Please bare with me as I learn through my mistakes of posting recipes on the internet.  I have already learned my first lesson that I should be taking pictures throughout the cooking processes.  This post we only get to see the end result.  I also do not measure my ingredients when cooking so most of measurements that I share are approximate.  I encourage all cooks to go with the flow when cooking and don't waste time making sure your measurements are exact.

Without further ado here is the recipe.

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
1 cup crushed almonds on a plate
1 egg beaten in a bowl
1/3 - 1/2 cup franks hot sauce
1 tablespoon butter

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Dredge chicken strips in the egg mix and then in the crushed almonds.  Place on a foil lined greased baking sheet (or on a rack on the baking sheet).  Cooked the almond crusted chicken for 30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

Once chicken is almost done cooking, pour franks hot sauce into a pot with the butter and heat through on medium high heat.  Turn down to simmer once butter has melted.  Note: franks hot sauce is spicy if you want less spicy add more butter.

Remove chicken from the oven and dredge each piece of chicken in the franks hot sauce making sure to cover entire surface of chicken.

Serve with a great big salad or veggies of choice.
