Chicken strips fried are crispy, golden-brown pieces of boneless chicken typically made by coating chicken breast slices in seasoned flour, breadcrumbs, or batter before frying in oil. Popular in American comfort food, they are a staple in fast food and casual dining menus worldwide. While the crunchy exterior and tender chicken provide a satisfying contrast in texture and flavor, their health aspects are mixed. Fried chicken strips are a good source of protein due to the chicken itself, but the frying process adds significant saturated fat and calories. Many versions include added sodium in the breading or seasoning. Choosing baked or air-fried alternatives, or pairing them with nutrient-rich sides like vegetables, can create a more balanced meal. Indulgent and convenient, fried chicken strips are best enjoyed occasionally as part of a varied, moderate diet.
