About Chicken tenders with white sauce
Chicken tenders with white sauce offer a flavorful combination of crispy protein paired with a creamy finishing touch. This dish typically features breaded and lightly fried chicken strips served alongside a velvety white sauce made from ingredients like butter, flour, milk, and optional seasonings such as garlic or cheese. The origins of chicken tenders trace back to American comfort food culture, while the white sauce often draws inspiration from French culinary traditions like béchamel. Though rich in protein from the chicken, the breading and frying process may add extra fats and calories. Similarly, the white sauce, while indulgent and satisfying, is often higher in saturated fats depending on its preparation. For those seeking balance, baking the chicken instead of frying and using low-fat milk in the sauce can create a slightly healthier version of this classic dish.
