Boneless wings are not made like hot dogs, they are just cut from the breast meat which is very similar to wing meat. Nuggets are also cut from breast meat just a different coating than the wings. My guess is boneless wings came from the fact most people like the taste from the buffalo wings but with only 2 wings per chicken, someone figured out cutting up the breast and deep frying it like wings is easier, cheaper as you can get probably a dozen boneless wings from one bird and can be served while drinking beer watching football.
Calling it deep fried chicken breast won’t sell quite like the wing term and beer drinkers are no looking for nuggets or tenders but what goes with beer better that wings.
