Breaded Chicken Tenders, Cooked

Breaded Chicken Tenders, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Breaded chicken tenders are boneless, skinless chicken strips coated in seasoned flour or breadcrumbs and typically deep-fried, air-fried, or baked until crisp. The golden-brown exterior adds carbohydrates and fats compared to uncoated chicken, while the lean poultry base retains high protein content. Though popular as a convenient protein source, their calorie density and potential gluten content depend on breading thickness and cooking method.
