Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients:

  • Tyson Frozen Chicken Strips Use your preferred variety whether classic, spicy, or lightly breaded.
  • Cooking Spray (Optional) A light spritz of oil can help enhance crispiness.

Optional Additions for Extra Flavor:

  • Seasonings A dash of garlic powder smoked paprika, or black pepper can take your strips to the next level.
  • Parmesan Cheese Sprinkle on top after cooking for a cheesy crispy finish.
  • Dipping Sauces Ranch honey mustard, BBQ, or buffalo sauce for extra indulgence.

Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  • 1️⃣ Preheat the Air Fryer – While it’s not always necessary, preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes helps achieve an evenly crispy texture.
  • 2️⃣ Arrange the Chicken Strips – Place the frozen chicken strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding, as this can cause uneven cooking and soggy breading.
  • 3️⃣ Air Fry to Perfection – Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through. If you like them extra crispy, add 1–2 more minutes.
  • 4️⃣ Check for Doneness – The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
  • 5️⃣ Crispy Boost Trick – If you want even more crunch, lightly spray the strips with cooking oil before cooking.
  • 6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy – Let them cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch, honey mustard, or BBQ.
