Ingredients
  

  • 20 oz fully cooked frozen breaded chicken tenders with air-fryer directions
  • 1 English cucumber sliced
  • 1 avocado pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges

Method
 

  1. Preheat air fryer to package temperature. Arrange tenders in one layer with gaps; use two batches if needed.
  2. Air-fry for full package time, turning as directed, until crisp and centers reach 165°F. Estimate allows two 12-minute batches; your brand may take longer.
  3. Serve tenders with cucumber, avocado, ranch and lemon wedges.

Notes

Equipment: air fryer, instant-read thermometer.
Serving size: one of 4 equal portions.
Use fully cooked tenders specifically labeled for air-fryer preparation. Raw breaded chicken may look cooked; do not substitute without following its own validated package instructions.
Refrigerate leftovers in shallow covered containers within 2 hours and use within 3–4 days. Reheat hot dishes to 165°F.
