The cooking time for frozen chicken tenders in an air fryer will depend on their thickness and the temperature of the air fryer. As a general rule of thumb, frozen chicken tenders can be cooked in an air fryer at 400°F (204°C) for 12-15 minutes.
Here are the steps you can follow to cook frozen chicken tenders in an air fryer:
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (204°C) for 5 minutes.
- Place the frozen chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving some space between each tender.
- Cook the chicken tenders for 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.
- Check the internal temperature of the chicken tenders with a meat thermometer to ensure they are fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Keep in mind that cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the chicken tenders, so it’s always a good idea to use a meat thermometer to ensure that they are fully cooked before serving.
