What it is

Chicken breast tenders are pieces of boneless, skinless chicken breast that have been cut into strips. They are typically breaded and pre-cooked, often through frying or baking, to be reheated by consumers.

Why it's used

Chicken breast tenders are used as a protein source in a variety of prepared foods. They are commonly found in frozen appetizers, entrees, and sandwiches, providing a convenient and familiar option for consumers.

Health notes

Chicken breast tenders are a source of protein and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) regulates poultry products for safety and wholesomeness. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated poultry products, but no specific health claims are typically associated with chicken breast tenders at normal consumption levels.
