Spicy Chicken Tenders, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Spicy Chicken Tenders are cooked, breaded chicken strips typically coated in seasoned breading and enhanced with chili-based spices or hot sauce marinade. While providing a notable source of lean protein from chicken breast meat, they often contain moderate to high sodium levels depending on preparation method, with fried versions having increased fat content compared to baked alternatives. These tenders balance convenience with bold flavor, commonly served as a quick meal component or appetizer, though portion control is advised for calorie-conscious diets.
