Chicken fingers, also known as chicken strips or tenders, are popular breaded and fried pieces of chicken typically made from the tenderloin, a lean and flavorful part of the breast. Originating in American cuisine, they are often seasoned with a blend of spices, coated in flour or breadcrumbs, and deep-fried or baked to achieve a crispy exterior. While they are a convenient source of protein, nutritional value can vary based on preparation. Fried chicken fingers tend to be high in calories and fat due to the cooking oil, and breading can contribute to added carbohydrates and sodium. Some healthier versions are baked or air-fried and use whole-grain breadcrumbs or alternative coatings. Served with dipping sauces, they are a versatile and widely loved option in casual dining but should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
