Nutrisystem Spotlight: What are Stuffed Chicken Sticks?

A good lunch should stick with you. If you’re looking for a filling and satisfying lunch option, Nutrisystem’s Stuffed Chicken Sticks are a great choice. High in protein and available in two cheesy flavors, these handheld meals can keep you feeling satisfied until dinnertime.

What is a Stuffed Chicken Stick?

A Stuffed Chicken Stick is a savory, high-protein frozen lunch option from Nutrisystem. Essentially, it’s chicken that’s been formed into a stick and stuffed with a cheesy filling. While they might sound indulgent, these sticks are actually a weight loss-friendly option. And best of all, they’re quick and easy to prepare. Just pop them in the microwave, oven or air fryer and you’re good to go!

We currently offer two different types of Stuffed Chicken Sticks. Each type starts with an ooey, gooey filling at the center. Both options are sure to please your taste buds and leave you feeling satisfied.

There is no breading on the chicken sticks: Instead, they are surrounded by chicken and finished with a light coating of parmesan cheese. In fact, the first two ingredients in both of our Stuffed Chicken Sticks are chicken and parmesan cheese!

Here are more details on each type of Stuffed Chicken Stick that we offer:
