Gnarled Witch’s Fingers
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 chicken cutlets
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg — beaten
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
6 ounces black olives — drained
1 head iceberg lettuce — shredded
PREPARATION
1. Grease a cookie sheet with vegetable oil and set aside.
2. Carefully slice the cutlets with a knife
or clean scissors into strips about the width of 1 finger.
3. Do not cut them perfectly straight -
the more crooked, the better.
4. Put the flour, egg and bread crumbs into
separate bowls and line the bowls up next to each other.
5. Dust the chicken strips with flour, working
with 2 or 3 at a time.
6. Then dip them into the bowl of beaten
egg.
7. Roll each strip in bread crumbs.
8. Place strips on the cookie sheet broil
the Witch’s Fingers for 5 minutes on each side, or until
they are golden brown.
9. To make fingernails, cut the olives in
half lengthwise.
10. Trim the halves into pointy nail shapes.
11. Carefully place the olives on hot Witch’s
Finger “tips” and arrange on a shredded head of
lettuce,
12. If you prefer your fingers more moist,
try dipping them in barbecue sauce or honey mustard salad dressing.
