First prepare your ranch dressing.
-
2
To the pitcher of your blender, add the mayo, yogurt, buttermilk, vinegar, sugar, chives, dill and a dash of salt and black pepper.
-
3
Blend on high until the ranch dressing is smooth and creamy.
-
4
Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
-
5
Preheat your oven to 450 F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
-
6
Spray the foil with a non-stick spray and set aside.
-
7
To the bowl of your food processor, add the almonds.
-
8
Pulse until the almonds are almost completely powder.
-
9
A few small chunks may remain.
-
10
Transfer to a shallow bowl.
-
11
In a second shallow bowl, combine the eggs and water.
-
12
Whisk to combine.
-
13
In a third shallow bowl, combine the corn flour (or rice flour) and a dash of salt and black pepper.
-
14
Taking each chicken strip, dip it first in the corn flour.
-
15
Shake it to get rid of any excess flour.
-
16
Next dip it into the egg, and lastly dip it into the ground almonds.
-
17
Press to adhere where needed.
-
18
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
-
19
Spray the chicken with a non-stick spray and place it in the oven.
-
20
Bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is crispy and brown.
-
21
You may need to turn on the broiler for a couple of minutes to get a brown crust.
-
22
Remove from heat and set aside.
-
23
While your chicken is baking, prepare your sauce.
-
24
In a medium saucepan, combine the Sriracha, honey and Tabasco.
-
25
Heat over low heat, whisking to combine.
-
26
Once warmed through, remove from heat.
-
27
Very gently toss the chicken in the sauce.
-
28
You may also drizzle or brush the sauce on top, and place it under the broiler for a few minutes.
-

I find that this yields a better result.
