Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 10 tenders Frozen Chicken tenders I used Applegate Chicken Breast Tenders and added as many could fit in my air fryer basket with space in between.
  • Avocado oil spray or oil in a spray mister

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees for 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the chicken tenders in a single layer to your air fryer basket.
  • Spray the chicken tenders generously with oil - this helps with crisping and browning.
  • Air fry the chicken strips at 400 degrees for 7 minutes. Flip the tenders and spray with more oil.
  • Air fry the chicken tenders for 6-8 more minutes depending on desired browning and crisping.
