Breaded chicken breast meat shaped into thin, fry-like strips, these frozen pieces are built for dipping. They come fully cooked, so you just heat them in the oven or air fryer until the coating turns crisp and the center is hot. Because they’re narrower than nuggets, there’s more breading around each piece, which changes the texture and the way sauce clings. Within Kroger’s frozen lineup, they sit closer to nuggets than to a breaded cutlet, but the shape makes them easier to handle with ketchup, ranch, or barbecue sauce. Serve them as a snack, side, or quick protein with a small pile of fries.
