Game Day Chicken Spread (With Skinny Special Sauce for Dipping!) — The Skinny Fork by Gordon Ramsay

Game Day Chicken Spread (With Skinny Special Sauce for Dipping!) — The Skinny Fork



The first thing I did was head to my local H-E-B where I was able to pick up three of my favorite offerings from Tyson® including Tyson Any’tizers® Popcorn Chicken, Tyson Grilled & Ready® Chicken Breast Strips, and Tyson Naturals® Gluten Free Breaded Chicken Breast Nuggets.

The Tyson Any’tizers Popcorn Chicken is perfect for, well, popping straight from platter to mouth. It’s a protein-packed snack that everyone will enjoy, even the kiddos! The Tyson Grilled & Ready Chicken Breast Strips are what I set up to be used in the chicken street tacos with tortillas, lettuce, cheese and salsa! The chicken strips are made with 100% real, simple, all-natural* ingredients.

My personal favorite are the Tyson Naturals Gluten Free Breaded Chicken Breast Nuggets. Just like the popcorn chicken, and the strips, the nuggets are made with chickens that are raised with no antibiotics ever. They’re also made with white meat chicken and a gluten free breading. Crispy and delicious, the nuggets are perfect for dipping in the Skinny Special Sauce!
