Hidden underneath the breast, chicken tenders live up to their name. Lean, naturally tender, and incredibly versatile. From pasture-raised birds raised corn-free and soy-free with no vaccines or antibiotics. Marinate and grill for a salad topper, slice for stir-fry, or coat in almond flour and air-fry for a paleo-friendly version of crispy tenders the whole family will ask for again. The cleanest, most kid-friendly cut we offer.

Size: 1 LB 

All orders ship frozen with dry ice and insulated packaging to arrive in perfect condition. We ship Monday–Wednesday to avoid weekend delays. Orders placed after Wednesday will ship the following week.

Our chicken meets a standard that less than 0.001% of US poultry can claim. 100% pasture-raised on rotating fresh ground. Corn-free, soy-free, certified organic feed. Completely vaccine-free and antibiotic-free. Processed with no chlorine or bleach. We've held this standard since 2012 and we're not changing it.

As a PA, I started Primal Pastures because I couldn't find meat I trusted for my own family. This is it, raised the way I was looking for all those years ago

Why It's Different

Most "pasture-raised" chicken still eats corn and soy. Ours doesn't.

01

Pasture + Certified Organic Feed

Our birds scratch for bugs, worms, and grasses on open pasture in addition to a certified organic corn, soy and seed oil free feed. That varied diet shows up in the fat profile — and on the plate.

Primal: bugs, worms, grasses, corn-free, soy-free, seed-oil-free.
Conventional: corn, soy, seed oils, no pasture.
02

No Vaccines or Antibiotics

We believe healthy birds don't need pharmaceutical interventions. Our birds are raised outdoors, under sunlight, which is nature's natural disinfectant. Their environment is optimized for health, not illness.

Primal: no pharmaceuticals, steroids or antibiotics
Crammed into growhouses, vaccinated and treated with antibiotics
03

No Chemicals on Pasture

Our chickens are raised on pastures that are not poisoned by chemical fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides or fungicides. We believe less inputs = better outputs.

Primal: sunlight, rainfall, nature.
No chemical inputs: herbicides, fungicides, pesticides

the primal standard

"Clean" labels are everywhere.
Ours mean something.

Our chickens live on pasture every day — not in barns with a small door to the outside, but on real, rotating, open pasture with fully mobile coops that move to fresh ground constantly. They forage for bugs, worms, and grasses the way chickens are built to, and they're supplemented with a certified organic, corn-free, soy-free feed.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our birds forage on pasture eating bugs, worms, grasses, seeds and are supplemented with a certified organic, corn-free, soy-free, non-GMO feed made from organic milo, barley, peas, fishmeal, and olive oil.

    We've even replaced inflammatory seed oils in the feed with olive oil. It's what we believe is the cleanest chicken feed available anywhere.

  • Corn and soy represent over 99.9% of American chicken feed by volume. The feed is what gets into the fat. Corn and soy-fed chickens carry a very different fatty acid profile than birds raised on pasture and clean feed — higher in inflammatory omega-6s, lower in the nutrients your body actually wants. Our feed standard represents less than 0.001% of chickens available in the US.

  • Yes. Our chicken is completely unvaccinated. While conventional and even most organic poultry operations routinely vaccinate against Marek's, Newcastle, Infectious Bronchitis, Infectious Bursal, and Fowl Pox, we've chosen a different path. Raising chickens on fresh pasture with a clean diet, sunshine, and clean well water eliminates the conditions that make those interventions necessary in the first place.

  • All orders are vacuum-sealed and flash-frozen immediately after processing to lock in flavor and quality. They ship frozen with dry ice and insulated packaging. We ship Monday-Wednesday nationwide. Orders placed after Wednesday ship the following week.

  • Our chickens are processed with a hydrogen peroxide and vinegar rinse, not the chlorine bleach baths standard in conventional processing. They're then immediately frozen to lock in freshness and quality. It's a cleaner method that achieves the same food safety goals without the chemical residue.

  • Yes, meaningfully so. Because of their life on pasture, our chickens are higher in Vitamins A, B, D, and E, three times higher in omega-3 fatty acids, and lower in saturated fat compared to conventionally raised chicken. The pasture and the clean feed both contribute to that nutritional difference.

  • "Pasture-raised" on most labels means minimal outdoor access, often a small door to a concrete pad. Ours means constant rotation to fresh pasture, every day. All of our coops are fully mobile, so our birds always have access to fresh grasses, bugs, worms, flowers, and weeds. That continuous movement is what genuine pasture-raised looks like.

Delicious!

For my 1st order I tried the chicken tenders. They were absolutely delicious! I wanted to order more but they were sold out. I’m allergic to soy so I was so happy when I found Primal Pastures. I will definitely order more in the future.

So convenient!

I love these little tenders! I usually have to cut the chicken breasts so that they cook faster and more evenly, but these little guys cook quickly and evenly and they're great when I don't have much time or patience for cooking! Your chicken is infinitely better than any other chicken I've had, and I love that they are corn and soy-free! Thank you for being so diligent about the health of your chickens and the health of your customers!!

Chicken tenders are amazing.

Such a blessing to know what is in the chicken you are eating and to have the flavor as well.

High quality

Breaded and baked these chicken tenders, which were obviously very high-quality. I think they do not need quite as long of a cook time as store-bought chicken tenders so I will be testing that next time.

I love the taste of the chicken breast. I can really tell the difference between others.
The packaging is nice! I can defrost within a few hours. It stays frozen without freezer burn. Like others.

Wonderful chicken products

I am grateful for the way that Primal Pastures raises their chickens. The meat is far better in texture and flavor than what I can get in a local grocery store! Thank you!!

I used the tenders to add to stir-fry and came out great, the difference in taste and texture is significant. Will definitely buy again!

Best chicken

Everything from primal pastures is delicious. Chicken tastes great and fresh (and knowing where it came from and how it was raised makes it even better). Only downside is the cost of shipping. Understand it is quality meat but probably won’t be able to order again until shipping costs go down as it is a lot to pay every month for a meat delivery and I cannot afford to buy in bulk :( worth it if you can budget better than me! lol.

Tender and Delicious

They were very good Chicken Tenders. The frozen carton was enough for 2 separate diners. Your chickens are smaller than the ones I have purchased from other vendors. That is fine as I guess they are younger chickens. What type of chicken are you raising?
