Cooking instruction summary:

Spray both sides of your chicken tenders with olive oil cooking spray. In a shallow bow, whisk together the breadcrumbs, season salt and pepper. Working in batches, press each tender into the crumbs and turn to coat. Shake off any excess and place onto a clean platter or cutting board and repeat. Spray the wire rack/basket (of your air fryer) to prevent sticking and preheat to 390. Once preheated, work in batches of 3 or 4 tenders at a time, keep them from touching to avoid sticking. Cook for 3 minutes, use clean tongs to turn and repeat for 3 more minutes more. Transfer to a cooling rack before repeating with the remaining chicken tenders. To reheat, add all of the crispy (cooked) chicken tenders to the basket and heat at 390 for an additional minute or so.
