Air Fryer Chicken Tenders
Components:
- Strips of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, often known as chicken tenders
- One cup of flour for all purposes
- two beaten eggs
- One cup of breadcrumbs, preferably panko for maximum crunch
- one tsp powdered garlic
- One tsp powdered onion
- One tsp of paprika
- To taste, add salt and pepper.
- Olive oil or cooking spray
Guidelines:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Give your air fryer a five-minute warmup period at 200°C (400°F).
- Get the breading station ready: Put all of the flour into one basin.
- Beat the eggs in a separate basin.
- Combine the breadcrumbs, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt & pepper in a separate bowl.
- Bread the Chicken: Shake off excess flour after dredging each tender chicken in flour.
- After flouring the chicken, dip it into the beaten eggs.
- Apply the breadcrumb mixture to the chicken, making sure to press the breadcrumbs firmly to stick.
- Arrange in the Air Fryer: Use an oil sprayer or lightly spray cooking spray on the air fryer basket.
- To ensure enough air circulation, place the breaded chicken tenders in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not in contact with one another.
- Air fry: Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Cook the chicken tenders for 10 to 12 minutes, turning them halfway through. Depending on how thick the chicken is, adjust the cooking time.
- Check for Doneness: When the chicken has a crispy, golden-brown surface and an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F), it is done.
- Serve: Take the cooked chicken tenders out of the air fryer and let them a few minutes to rest.
- Present the air-fried chicken tenders beside your preferred dipping condiments.
- These crispy, tasty chicken tenders made in an air fryer are a healthier option than deep-frying. Savor your delicious , simple-to-make chicken tenders.
