Ingredients
 

  • 1 large egg (at room temperature)
  • ½ cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (or plain)
  • ½ teaspoon each, salt & pepper (to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • 8 chicken tenderloins
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil (extra virgin)

(Note: 2x or 3x only changes the ingredient list)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk your large egg. In a second bowl, mix together Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly mixed.
  • Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture to coat it and shake off any residual egg. Then dip them into the breadcrumb mixture and evenly coat both sides until fully covered.
  • Place the chicken tenders on the bottom of the air fryer basket in an even layer and mist them with olive oil in a spritz bottle.
  • Air-fry the tenders at 350°F (175°C) for 5-6 minutes on each side (if flipped) or until the center is no longer pink. Use a digital meat thermometer and check if the internal temperature is at least 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve with your favorite chicken tender dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Preheating your air fryer is optional but I find it makes for the crispiest chicken tenders!
  • You can also use plain breadcrumbs for this recipe if you don't have Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs.
  • Shake off any extra breadcrumb coating before you place them into the air fryer as too much breading can cause the tenders to stick to the air fryer basket.
  • Make sure to always use a digital meat thermometer in the thickest part of the chicken tender. The internal temperature must be at least 165°F (74°C).
  • To store: Place any leftover chicken tenders (fully cooled) in a plastic storage bag or airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 5 days. You can also freeze them by placing them in a heavy-duty storage bag in the freezer for up to 1 month.
  • To reheat: Lay your chicken tenders down flat in the air fryer basket and reheat at 350°F (175°C) for at least 4 minutes or until heated through to your liking.
