Chicken Strips Dinner Board

Let’s jump forward a few months, when we can all start inviting people into our homes again!

The point of entertaining is for the beauty of fellowship, and what takes place when sharing a meal and meaningful conversation! Which is why I love to serve big boards! This is a quick and easy Chicken Strips Board you can serve for a game day party, a board game night gathering, or a children’s birthday party!

Or, you may want to make a Epic French Fries Board!

There’s nothing more satisfying than feeding your community, neighbors, and friends. And, I promise, with this casual way to put a spread on the table, right away your guests will feel comfortable and more open to sharing their stories. Some of my most amazing conversations have been with friends, sitting around a board, grazing and talking.

How to make a Chicken Strips Board

  1. You can order the chicken strips and fries ahead of time and pick them up just before serving, or make your own.
  2. For the center display, arrange the strips on a plate to prop them upwards slightly.
  3. Place small bowls of sauces and M&Ms around the plate, then fill in the remaining space with fries and other ingredients.

What is the The Big Board®?

I’ve been surprised to see how “the big board” concept has taken off. But the truth is, people are looking for new ways to connect, to serve their people, to share love and food in a casual way. Some want the intimacy that comes with serving a dinner board. Others want a new way to present beautiful food.

Some love the hygge feeling it conveys, or the coziness that draws people in. Or perhaps it’s because people like to fill their own plates, rather than sit down to a stuffy, formal meal.

Whatever the reason, food is fresh and real, and it doesn’t have to take hours of prep. You can make my boards at home, but there are also shortcuts that can help you get a board pulled together quickly with a run to the store. Some boards are more gourmet than others, but many are down-to-earth meals that we all love.
