FAQ
Q: Can I use chicken breasts instead of tenders?
A: Yes! Slice boneless, skinless chicken breasts into strips to make your own tenders. You may need to adjust the cook time slightly, as they will be thicker than tenders.

Q: Do I need to preheat the air fryer?
A: Preheating helps the chicken cook evenly and crisps up better, so it's recommended. However, if you’re in a hurry, you can skip it, but the cooking time may vary.

Q: Can I make these in advance?
A: Yes! Cooked chicken tenders can be stored in the fridge and reheated in the air fryer for a quick meal throughout the week.
