FLAMIN’ HOT Has A New Collab, And This Time It’s Chicken Tenders

At this point, FLAMIN’ HOT has probably spent more time collaborating with other foods than some musicians have spent in the studio. And honestly, we’re not mad at the output. The latest addition to its growing catalog? Frozen Chicken Tenders and Bites, courtesy of Pilgrim’s.

The chicken brand has teamed up with FLAMIN’ HOT to introduce two new freezer aisle offerings, Pilgrim’s FLAMIN’ HOT Chicken Tenders and FLAMIN’ HOT Chicken Bites. Both feature all-white-meat chicken dressed in crispy breading seasoned with that unmistakable FLAMIN’ HOT flavor. It’s the kind of collab that makes you wonder why these two didn’t link up sooner. 

For the folks who like a substantial piece of chicken to chomp into, the tenders come in generously sized strips with 20 grams of protein per serving. Meanwhile, the bites offer a more snackable situation, with 16 grams of protein per serving and the same signature FLAMIN’ HOT kick. Both use chicken raised without antibiotics and contain no artificial colors or flavors.

And because nobody wants to spend an entire afternoon waiting on chicken tenders, Pilgrim’s made sure these are air fryer-friendly. The tenders are ready in about 15 minutes, while the bites take approximately 11. Just enough time to contemplate your dipping sauce situation, which, depending on how you feel about spice, could be a crucial choice..

Between the crispy coating, familiar FLAMIN’ HOT flavor, and the convenience of having them ready straight from the freezer, these new additions have plenty going for them. Whether you’re making a quick lunch or putting out a plate for game day, having some FLAMIN’ HOT chicken on deck sounds like a solid move.

Pilgrim’s FLAMIN’ HOT Chicken Tenders and Chicken Bites are available now at select retailers nationwide.
