Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1½ chicken tenders (or about 12)
  • olive oil spray
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose season salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • 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.
  • Lightly spray the chicken tenders and 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.
