Applegate Lightly Breaded Chicken Tenders
Applegate Lightly Breaded Chicken Tenders are made with all white meat and gluten-free. “I loved these! They cook up quickly in an air fryer and taste great,” one shopper said. “Even better, they don’t contain corn ingredients, so my allergic daughter can finally have a store-bought GF tender!”
Great Value Fully Cooked Chicken Strips
The Great Value Fully Cooked Breaded Chicken Strips are made with premium white meat chicken and are a big hit with Walmart shoppers. “I was paying well over the price for so called name brand strips.

Super excited, they went on and on about how much they liked them.”

This was soo tasty, we used an air fryer to cook,” one Sam’s club shopper said. “We’ve made delicious chicken sandwiches, used it over rice and vegetables, even noodle dishes. It got a bit spicy towards the end for me but my wife loved it.”
