Sesame Chicken Fingers

I haven't been posting any recipes lately. Never fear, we've been eating (probably more than we should). Today I dug out my Cooking Light cookbook and made a recipe from it for dinner. I was pleasantly surprised with how it turned out, though next time we'll try a different dipping sauce. The next time we have it we may be able to eat it on a new dining table! We found a table through a consignment shop and hope to have it at the house in a week or two.
