NOTES

How To Store Air Fried Crispy Chicken Tenders

Store any leftovers in an airtight container and place them in the refrigerator. The tenders will still be crispy when you reheat them.

How To Reheat Crispy Chicken In The Air Fryer

If you want the tenders to be extra crispy, then place them in your air fryer at 375F for 3-5 minutes. The chicken should reach 165F when it's fully heated through.
Alternatively, you can also heat them up in the oven or microwave. The air fryer will definitely give you the crispiest chicken though!
