Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 12 Chicken Nuggets Frozen, do not thaw. I added as many as could fit into my air fryer basket in a single layer with a little space in between
  • Avocado oil spray or oil in a spray mister

Instructions
 

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