16 BEST SIDE DISHES FOR CHICKEN TENDERS - INSANELY GOOD
From insanelygoodrecipes.com
Estimated Reading Time 6 mins
- French Fries. Here’s a classic side dish: French fries! Who doesn’t love them, right? Whether you like them hand-cut, thin and crispy, or even in chip form, this side is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
- Coleslaw. Another classic you can serve with your chicken tenders is coleslaw. With chicken, I like to serve it with a rich slaw with more mayo. It’s also a great way to have your veggies, especially when the cabbage has a good crunch to compliment the tenderness of the chicken.
- Asparagus Fries. Speaking of veggies, asparagus is one that even the pickiest eaters will enjoy. I like to bake my asparagus fries: just drizzle some olive oil on top and pop in the oven for about 10 minutes.
- Pesto Sauce. I love pesto! This one isn’t exactly a side dish but ever since I had chicken tenders with pesto, I’ve been addicted! I like to make a pesto bruschetta with some tomatoes with my chicken.
- Sweet Potatoes. If you’re looking for a healthier substitute for french fries, why not try sweet potatoes? They’re rich in fiber and Vitamin A; truly a guilt-free and delicious side dish.
- Zucchini Pasta. Speaking of nutrients, did you know that zucchini is rich in antioxidants like Vitamin C? Yup! So for another guilt-free side dish, try some zucchini pasta with your favorite sauce.
- Cornbread. Here’s a true Southern favorite and something everyone will love. Cornbread! It’s filling, with just the right amount of sweetness. I personally like mine with lots of corn kernels but whatever way you choose to make them, you can never go wrong with chicken and cornbread!
- Glazed Veggies. For something healthy but also a little sinful, you can try glazing some veggies and serving them with your chicken strips. To make the glaze simply cook butter, sugar, and a squeeze of lemon juice together and pour over your vegetables.
- Pasta Salad. I love a good salad, but pasta salad is next level! For chicken, I like to go with a vinaigrette dressing on a mix of cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives, feta cheese, some chopped parsley, and rotini pasta.
- Biscuits. Few Southern side dishes can rival a soft and fluffy biscuit. A little sweet and a little savory, this will definitely go well with your chicken.
