Homemade air fryer chicken tenders that are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed full of flavor. Dip in ranch or your favorite dipping sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 1.5 pounds chicken tenderloins
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, combine flour, paprika, parsley, seasoned salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Beat egg in a separate bowl.

  3. 3

    Dredge each chicken tender in seasoned flour. Dip in beaten egg, then back in seasoned flour.

  4. 4

    Coat basket with cooking spray; place as many coated chicken tenders in the air fryer basket as you can without overcrowding. Lightly mist the tops of the tenders with cooking spray.

  5. 5

    Cook in the preheated air fryer for 8 minutes. Flip chicken over and lightly mist the tops with more cooking spray. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 7 to 8 minutes more. Repeat with any remaining chicken tenders.
