Air Fryer Frozen Chicken Tenders Recipe

Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F). It should take roughly 5 minutes to heat.
Place the tenders into the air fryer.
Lightly spray the chicken tenders with the cooking oil.
Cook for 15 minutes. I recommend turning the tenders halfway through cooking.
Serve & Enjoy.

I highly recommend that you use a meat thermometer to ensure that the center of the chicken is cooked. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 75°C (170°F).
The cooking oil is entirely optional and can be left out if you want to keep things as healthy as possible. The oil does help guarantee a crispier crumb.
I recommend preheating the air fryer as it will help ensure a faster and better cook. If you are low on time, you can easily skip this step. However, you may need to adjust the cooking time.
Most chicken tenders are the same size. However, if you find that your tenders are smaller or larger, you may need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.

I do not recommend stacking the chicken as they may not cook correctly.
