How to cook Tyson Crispy Chicken Strips in an air fryer

ByStuart Melling

This is one of the few products we’ve seen that has air fryer instructions right on the bag! This is what Tyson recommend for their chicken strips:

  1. Preheat air fryer to 360F
  2. Cook for 11-12 minutes at 360F

We wondered if we would improve on that, either making for crisper chicken or a faster cooking time. We think we managed to improve slightly on both with the following approach. This resulted in noticeably crisper chicken than the packaging directions provided:

  1. Preheat air fryer to 400F
  2. Cook for ten minutes at 400F

We used the COSORI to air fry this (affiliate link, we get a fee), always check your food with a good kitchen thermometer.

The air fryer is definitely our preferred way to cook these chicken strips which end up with a fabulous crunch out of the fryer. See the full packaging on our sister site here.

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you!  I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC - Utah's biggest and oldest online food magazine; I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune.  I’ve worked extensively with a variety of national and local publications, not least helped to consult on national TV shows.

I’m a multiple-award winning journalist and have covered the Utah dining scene for the better part of fifteen years.   I’m largely fueled by a critical obsession with rice, alliteration and the use of big words I don’t understand.  

I'm also a huge fan of the air fryer, obsessively so. On a daily basis I am always asking myself, "can I air fry this". I started Air Fry Guide as a way to catalogue my own adventures in air frying, in the hope it helps others.

  2. I cooked 4 pcs at 11 minutes at 360, any longer they would have been petrified, try resorting half way and check in 3-4 minutes
