Our Preferred Preparation for Chicken Tenders

Chicken fingers of course! You can bread your chicken tenders, bake them, or pan sear them in garlic butter. You can serve the tenders as an entree or as a tasty appetizer for a group. And dipping sauces? That’s a science in and of itself.

    How it Ships...

    Our raw chicken tenders are prepared to order in 1.5 lb packages by our Toronto butchers and then shipped to your door on our own fleet of refrigerated trucks.

    The Butcher Shoppe sources the chickens for our chicken tenders from local Ontario farms. 

    We recommend you prepare or freeze your chicken tenders within five days of receiving them. Avoid washing the raw chicken tenders as this will spread juices to other surfaces. Instead, wash your hands first and then handle the tenders using a separate cutting board. When it comes time to cook, the key is to avoid drying the chicken out.

    A four-ounce serving of chicken breast contains just about 100 calories and almost two dozen grams of protein, making it a lean, healthy, and incredibly easy protein to make.

    “Made from 100% locally raised Ontario chicken.”

    The Butcher Shoppe sources our chickens from local free-run Ontario farms and hand cuts our chicken tenders to order. While most Ontario-sourced chicken is water chilled, we air chill our chicken to help it retain its beautiful colour and natural flavour without any extra water weight. The freshness of our chicken tenders is evident in the quality and taste.

    Grilled Chicken Strips

    One way to enjoy your chicken tenders is to keep it simple on the grill. Put the chicken tenders in a ziploc bag with your favorite marinade—say, oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, and lemon juice?—and let the meat sit for a couple of hours. When the grill is hot, cook the tenders for a couple minutes on each side while being careful not to dry out the meat.

    Broiled Chicken Tenders

    To cook your chicken tenders in a broiler, get the broiler going on high. Next, prepare your chicken strips by rubbing them down with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a cajun spice mix of your choosing. Place your chicken tenders on the rack and broil them for a few minutes on each side.

    Pan-Cooked Chicken Strips

    If you want to pan fry your chicken tenders, first pat the chicken dry and then coat the strips in a mix of flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat a generous drizzle of oil in a pan on medium heat before searing the chicken for a few minutes on each side.
