What are Chick-n-Strips

Boneless chicken tenders seasoned to perfection, freshly breaded and pressure cooked in 100% refined peanut oil. The 3-count serving weighs 136g. They are longer and thicker than nuggets, closer to a traditional chicken tender, and they eat like a light meal rather than a snack.

The strips give you more protein and less sodium for 60 more calories and a few cents more. Pick strips for a heartier, dippable order; pick nuggets for the lower calorie count.

Best sauces for strips

The strip shape was made for dipping. Chick-fil-A Sauce is the signature pick, honey mustard and barbecue are the classics, and Polynesian is the sweet option. Every sauce adds calories on top of the 310, so if you are counting, dip lightly or skip it.
