Is oven rack position a major factor? Bake mode or broil is better?

Bake only! Not broil, unless at the very end you need to colour. But you shouldn't have to, it will brown on its own.
Middle should be fine.

bake. never broil. convection if you have it.
Any "boneless" wing is going to be breast meat. Common knowledge.Chicken breast are now wings, interesting.

Ok, never heard that before. I'm more familiar with the term chicken fingers, chicken strips, maybe it's a regional thing.
I think it just really depends on the sauce you have with them.
Try roasting the chicken at a lower temperature, like 400°F, for a longer time to ensure even cooking and crispiness. You could go for about 25-30 minutes, and then finish it off under the broiler to give it that perfect final touch.
Boneless Buffalo Wings
These boneless wings are made with strips of skinless chicken breasts dipped in egg and seasoned flour, then fried until juicy, crispy, and golden.www.allrecipes.com
I tried this recipe, but wanted to bake instead because I am terrible at pan frying stuff. Fire alarm etc.
I found it only provided enough breading for a single layer on half of the chicken of the 3 chicken breasts. I believe the 4 breast pack weighted about 6lbs. I don't know if I did something wrong. Any ideas?
Also what is the best way to bake things so they are as crispy as frying or air frying? It came out too moist.
I baked at 450F for 10 minutes, then broiled for 5 more to get 165F.
If you call the entire U.S. a region...

Not sure I'm in Canada. What do Americans call chicken fingers or strips or is there no such thing in the US, and if you do have them, how are they made, curious.

"boneless wings" (aka jumbo shrimp) are always tenders or sliced breasts wherever Ive been in the US.

It depends on who's writing the menu. Breaded pieces of boneless chicken battered/breaded and cooked. Fingers, tenders, boneless wings, strips, etc. You just cannot call the nuggets because then it sounds like a McDonald's menu item.
@dcSaute not sure what you are saying. Are you saying that 'boneless' chicken wings are gound up chicken breast? Or people who call them 'nuggets' are involved in legal actions.
What about whole slices or chunks of chicken breast? Can they be called nuggets?
Or can they be called boneless chicken wings?
Personally I had no idea people even used ground chicken to make McNuggets or Wings. Have never had them.
So what exactly does McD's have a patent on?

No. absolutely not.
"Boneless chicken wings" are just chicken tenders. With sauce. They relieve the eater of the mess of eating a wing.
Nothing like ground chicken nuggets
IIRC, I read an article a long time back where McDonald's did/does grind up the chicken and press it into molds or cut it so that the servings will all be basically the same weight, even if the shapes are slightly different. I don't know if this is still true as we very, very rarely eat there and it's breakfast if we do.
Didn't McDonald's or some other chain offer dinosaur shaped nuggets at some point? Or maybe another animal shape? You can bet those were molded.

boneless 'chicken wings' are not chicken wings.
the theory that 'boneless chicken wings' are 'chicken tenders' is not real.
boneless wings and McNuggets are ground up chicken pressed/formed into a shape called "wings"
whether 'whole slices or chunks of chicken breast' can be called "nuggets" is not the topic.
A number of decades ago, I had something like that at McDonald's, the stuff that is ground up and pressed into molds. It was definitely made of ground meat. If it was chicken, then there was what seemed to be both white and dark meat and maybe some other edible bits and bobs. It was very greasy looking. I am pretty sure there were bread crumbs or some other filler mixed in with the meat. I don't remember what they called it. I believe it was some sort of temporary menu item, like their wretched McRibs. I thought the chicken things were gross. I never tried them again.

huh? I never thought nor said 'boneless chicken wings' were not chicken wings.
ahhh, perhaps not the section called"tenders" but certainly solid white meat. I think that makes them pretty 'real' - especially considering that some people don't even know what 'tenders' are or where they come from.
On that we agree
then what is the following statement about???
I'm not trying to be persnickety - I'm just trying to understand your answers.
Gosh medtran - think I remember that! Never had them but vaguely remember them. Yeah, must have been dinasaurs.

So, are boneless chicken wings a processed chicken product that is molded into a shape or are they pieces of chicken breast?
