Last night I made chicken bites and sausage in the air fryer. Chicken bites - cut chicken tenders into 3 pieces, toss with avocado oil, then salt, pepper, paprika. Finally toss with corn starch, then air fry. Premio Italian sausages - both sweet and hot - done whole, then sliced for serving. Sides were braised sliced Brussels sprouts with bacon. And white rice. What did you have?

Cold roast chicken with jacket potato and tomato. We had a rather busy day, so wanted something easy to make. What are chicken tenders Jam Lady? Might they be what we call chicken breast?

Mistress Rose, fancy term for chicken tenders is pectoralis minor, the piece on the underside of a chicken breast (which is pectoralis major.) It is rather long in proportion to its width, sort of finger like, with a white tendon that's relatively easy to remove with a knife angled against it and a cutting board.

Thanks Jam Lady. I think I know the bit. I haven't seen it sold locally as a separate piece and think it is usually sold as part of the chicken breast with the tendon removed here, although other butchers may sell it separately.
