Chicken fingers

치킨 텐더

U.S. dish of breaded and fried chicken meat from the pectoralis minor or similarly sized cut of chicken

About this dish

Chicken tenders (also known as chicken goujons, chicken strips, chicken fingers, or chicken fillets) are chicken meat prepared from the pectoralis minor muscles of the bird. These strips of white meat are located on either side of the breastbone, under the breast meat (pectoralis major). They may also be made with similarly shaped pieces cut from chicken meat, usually the breast, or sometimes just pulverized chicken flesh. Chicken tenders are prepared by coating chicken meat in a breading mixture and then deep frying them, in a manner similar to the preparation of Italian style milanese or schnitzel. They are a very popular fast-food snack or main course due to their convenience and have become a staple across the United States.
