2. Dip the chicken strips into the egg white mixture, coat with the seasoned bread crumbs, and place in the baking pan. Drizzle with the oil and bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes on each side or until crispy and golden-brown.
3. To prepare the dipping sauce: While the chicken is baking, blend all of the sauce ingredients in a medium-size bowl and spoon into a small serving bowl. Arrange the chicken fingers on a warm platter and serve with the sauce for dipping.
