Wingers copycat chicken salad is the best!

If you’re looking for an outstanding restaurant-style salad that is out of this world, try making this spicy sweet glazed sticky chicken nugget salad for dinner this week. Even people like my own husband who don’t get excited about salad, will love it!

Have you heard of Wingers chicken? Their unique sticky sweet and spicy breaded chicken tenders are super popular as well as the salad.  Unfortunately, we don’t have a Wingers by me, and I have never had it until watching this copycat idea on Instagram. What I am sharing today is inspired by the popular salad, but not exact as I have never had it!

Turns out, Wingers chicken is one of the best quick and easy salads ever!

The sticky glaze is full of flavor, and it works so well with the creamy ranch dressing. Adding cheddar cheese throws it over the top! Plus, the process of throwing a bag of chicken tenders in the air fryer or oven is a cinch! Very little prep involved which means you’ll be eating dinner in no time!

Extra tips for making Wingers chicken salad:

  • This had just the right amount of spicy and sweet for us, but if concerned hold back a bit on the hot sauce if you’d like.
  • Feel free to add or subtract veggies and add ingredients your family will love.
  • Mixing up some ranch dressing with a packet or seasoning is super easy and tastes delclious. You can use a bottled dressing instead of course! I also have a homemade ranch seasoning mix recipe to check out if you’d like to make your own seasoning.

Overall we were super impressed with this Wingers chicken quick meal idea!

It worked out great with the Bare chicken nuggets and my family loved this. They usually don’t get enthusiastic over salad as a meal and everyone loved! If you give this recipe idea a try let us know how it goes!
