Olive Garden Chicken Fingers (Catering) are lightly breaded chicken tenders priced at $28.79 for a catering order of 18 pieces, totaling 1,350 calories for the full tray. Ketchup is included as the standard dipping sauce. This is the same preparation used for the Kids Chicken Fingers on the children's menu, scaled to 18 pieces for group catering service. The lightly breaded exterior keeps the actual chicken flavor forward without heavy coating, making them a crowd-pleasing finger food that works at both family events and office catering setups.
At $28.79 for 18 pieces, the per-piece cost comes out to approximately $1.60 per tender — a strong value for a ready-to-serve catering appetizer. The catering format is labeled as perfect for kids, but the 18-piece volume suits mixed adult and child groups equally well at larger events. The tray arrives ready to serve without additional preparation, making it one of the simplest menu additions for catering coordinators who need a reliable finger-food protein option.

The chicken fingers use a light breadcrumb coating rather than a heavy batter. The preparation is the same as the Kids Chicken Fingers on the children's menu — a mild, lightly seasoned coating that keeps the chicken flavor prominent without overpowering the tender.
Ketchup is the standard included dipping sauce. Additional dipping sauces can be ordered separately through the catering menu, including marinara, Alfredo, and five-cheese marinara options.
No. The lightly breaded coating contains wheat-based breadcrumbs. Guests with gluten sensitivity should opt for the Grilled Chicken Breasts catering option, which is naturally gluten free.
