"I am always in the mood for Chicken Fingers and this recipe with its delicious dipping sauce hits the spot every time! I love them with homemade french fries and cole slaw. The sauce makes 1/4 cup, so you can double/triple it to use as a condiment on lots of foods. The Preparation Time DOES NOT include the 1 hour time for the chicken and sauce in the refrigerator."
