Shanghai Chicken Fingers is a dish that you can find and order in almost any pub in Romania.

I have no idea why it’s called Shanghai but I suppose that are actually from Chinese cuisine with some modifications to be served in Romanian pubs.

They’re actually strips of pane ( panne ) chicken breast, tender, tasty and flavorful.

You can serve them as such, for dinner or with your favorite side dish.

It will also save you when you need a fast warm appetizer because they are so flexible. Going well with any beverage, alcoholic or not, hot or cold and also with any kind of sauce.

They are very easy and quick to prepare and are also convenient because 20 pieces can come out of a chicken breast.
