Homemade Chicken Tenders
Make crispy chicken tenders at home. They're made with familiar ingredients and are ready to serve in 20 minutes. Leave the preservatives at the store!
Ingredients
- 1 lb. (450 g) chicken tenders (about 7–9 pieces)
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
- ½ tsp (2 mL) salt
- ½ tsp (2 mL) garlic powder
- ¼ tsp (1 mL) black pepper
- ½ cup (125 mL) all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) milk
- 3 cups (750 mL) cornflake cereal, crushed
- Oil for spritzing
Directions
- Pat the tenders dry with paper towels. Add the tenders, oil, salt, garlic powder, and pepper to a small bowl; toss to combine.
- Set the Deluxe Air Fryer & Oven to Air Fry for 12 minutes.
- Add the flour to a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs and milk together in a second shallow bowl. Add the crushed cornflakes to a third shallow bowl.
- Dip each tender into the flour, then the egg mixture, and then the cornflake mixture, pressing to adhere.
- Place the tenders on a greased Air Fryer Rack. When the display says, “ADD FOOD,” add the rack to the oven. Press start.
- Rotate the rack halfway through cooking. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), adding more time, if needed.
