  1. Spread out the quinoa on a piece of wax paper or aluminum foil. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the quinoa. With your fingertips, squeeze the quinoa and breadcrumbs together until the moisture of the quinoa is absorbed.

  3. Place the egg whites in a shallow bowl. Dip the chicken in the egg and then into the quinoa mixture.

  5. Transfer fingers to a plate and serve immediately.
