Notes
- Frequently asked questions:
- How long can I store the cooked chicken tenders? Once the chicken has cooled you can store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- How do I reheat the chicken? Reheat the chicken in the microwave for 1-2 minutes and stop to turn every 30-45 seconds until hot. Once reheated do not cool and store again in the refrigerator, consume it right away. So only reheat the amount you will consume. For a crispier texture you can reheat in the oven set at 200°F for 10-12 minutes until they are warm in the center. Reheating in the air fryer can be done at 350°F for 3 minutes until they are warm throughout.
- Can I freeze the chicken tenders? Yes, allow the chicken to cool and you can freeze in airtight containers for up to 2 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator and then reheat with one of the methods shown above.
