We can all agree, that chicken tenders are a staple in the Permian Basin. Having the perfect tender dipped in gravy with a roll or biscuit has to be one of the best food combos!

When I was a teenager I worked at Bush's Chicken for years. Once I got a little older I managed the one on West County in Odessa, so you could say I'm a little experienced in the tender game. Considering I may be biased, I asked the Permian Basin who they thought had the best chicken tenders in the area.

4. GOLDEN CHICK

People tend to forget that Golden Chick is an option in the Permian. Their golden tenders are good, plus they have the spicy option.

3. CHICKEN EXPRESS

Chicken Express is a fan favorite and is making its way up the list. Their corn nuggets hit though!

2. BUSH'S CHICKEN

If you ask me second place doesn't feel right but you spoke for yourself West Texas. On your next visit put some Spicy Serendipity in your gravy. You can thank me later!

1. RAISING CANE'S

Raising Cane's came in hot and made the #1 spot! A big contributor is their Raising Canes Sauce. I could probably buy it by the gallon if they let me.

Even though Bush's Chicken coming in second hurt my feelings, talking about food is probably my favorite pastime.  Next time everyone in your office debates which chicken tender is better, pull out this article and show them the receipts!
