Homemade Chicken Tenders are a classic comfort food with roots in American cuisine, beloved for their crispy texture and juicy interior. Made from strips of boneless, skinless chicken breast, these tenders are typically coated in a seasoned breadcrumb or flour mixture and either baked or fried to golden perfection. This dish is a versatile option, appreciated by both children and adults alike. Baking the tenders or using an air fryer offers a healthier alternative, reducing the oil content while keeping the crunch intact. High in protein, they are a hearty choice, but frying can add extra calories and unhealthy fats, so moderation is key. For added nutrition, whole-grain breadcrumbs or almond flour can be used, and pairing them with fresh vegetables or a low-fat dip enhances their health benefits. These homemade creations are a satisfying balance of indulgence and nourishment.
