Easy 20-Minute Chicken Fingers

Who doesn’t love chicken fingers? How about tasty chicken fingers that are healthy for you and ready in 20 minutes? Sounds too good to be true, I know.

Trader Joe’s has this amazing teriyaki marinade, Island Soyaki. It tastes and smells good enough to be used as perfume. It’s half of what made these fast ‘n’ fabulous chicken fingers so delicious.

Japanese Panko breadcrumbs pack a satisfying crunch without the heaviness of traditional breadcrumbs. They’re the other half of what made these chicken fingers so good.
