Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsChicken tenders are safe with precautions during pregnancy provided they are cooked piping hot throughout. Poultry supplies high-quality lean protein, vitamin B6, and potassium to support fetal tissue formation. The USDA advises that chicken must reach an internal temperature of 165°F to eliminate Salmonella and Campylobacter bacteria. Consume breaded tenders in moderation because deep frying adds substantial sodium and saturated fat.
