Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc

Chicken Tenders works really well with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. White meat is typically paired with white wine as to not overpower the flavor of the meat, so chardonnay and sauvignon blanc are safe choices. Chicken prepared with a tomato sauce or certainly a red wine sauce can and should be served with a red like a pinot noir. You could try Hahn Winery Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.
