Best chicken strips from the grocery store?

[Claudia1]

I need to buy some great breaded chicken strips. My kids loved McDonald's chicken selects.... lots of white meat and good breading. Anything comparable in the frozen food section?

My DD loves the Perdue Simply Smart lightly breaded chunks. A bit more expensive but a world of difference compared to the other molded processed junk.

Generally, my DH will not eat any store bought chicken nuggets or strips but he likes the Kirkwood Crispy Chicken Strips from Aldi. They are all white meat breaded strips.

Many people are hesitant to shop at Aldi but I shop there often. From what I have heard (radio talk show), all of their products are made for them by big retailers. Chicken is Tyson, cereal is Post, chips are Vitners...

They have a double money back guarantee so if you don't like any of their products, they will refund you the money and replace the product.

These aren't too bad

I buy Pilgrims Pride from Sams Club it's in a blue box. They are not pre cooked and must be baked.

My teens love to make tortilla rollups with these--similar to McDonald's Chicken go wraps. We place a strip or two in a tortilla, add cheddar cheese, a little lettuce and either honey mustard or ranch dressing. It's now a tradition for me to make these and bring them to the kids before band shows at Friday night football.

This is true.

I bought a 12 pack of store brand soda once only to find pepsi in the box when we opened it.

I like the Purdue Simply(?) or something like that. We get the gluten free ones. Not because we are a GF household, but because we tried them at a friend's house and loved the breading .

Don't laugh but I love the Mickey Shaped breaded nuggets you can get from Costco. They are not strips and are molded but they are white meat and very yummy!!!

Tyson Crispy Chicken Strips!!!

I swear these are the chicken selects from McDonalds. Taste the same and even look the same. They aren't cheap but they are great.

Another vote for Purdue chicken strips! They are in the freezer section, although they also sell some non-frozen.

No, these are way better than the McDonalds ones. I hate those. I only buy the Tyson's Crispy ones from the supermarket.

We usually buy Tyson or the Kirkland from Aldi. The spicy ones from Kirkland are really good.

Trader Joe's are very good.

Trader Joe's are very good.

Yeah...If you're a snob...


***See TJ's thread.

Another vote for Trader Joes.

Ha, that's what made me think of it. The tj's strips have lots less salt and fat than some of the other brands I've tried. The chicken doesn't taste like it was soaked in saline solution either.

My DD loves the Perdue Simply Smart lightly breaded chunks...

We like those as well.

Another vote for Tyson Crispy Chicken Strips, which my kids call "Disney Chicken." They say Tyson tastes almost like the chicken nuggets (used to be strips in the old days) at WDW.

Not sure where you live, but the Wegmans brand chicken strips are really good.
