Equipment

  • 1 Air fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken tenderloins
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder and bread crumbs. In another small bowl, whisk the eggs.
  • Dip the chicken in the eggs, then in the crumb mixture. Patting the mixture onto the chicken will help it stick through the cooking process. Continue the process until all chicken tenders are prepared (unless cooking multiple batches).
  • Coat the air fryer tray with baking spray, then arrange the chicken in the single layer. Spritz the top of the chicken with baking spray.
  • Cook for approximately 7-8 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 7-8 minutes. Cook until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165°F.
