DirectionsGet to the point

2Pat 1.5 lbs chicken tenders dry. Dredge in flour, dip in egg, then press into panko mixture.
3Arrange in a single layer in a greased air fryer basket. Spray tops with cooking spray.
4Air fry at 400°F for 12 minutes, flipping at 6 minutes, until golden and internal temp hits 165°F.
Dad pro tip

These taste like restaurant chicken tenders but with a fraction of the oil and none of the deep fryer cleanup. The parmesan in the panko is the secret weapon for next-level crunch.

Kid adjustment

Serve with a lineup of dipping sauces: honey mustard, ketchup, BBQ sauce, and ranch. Let kids pick their favorites and dip away.

Reheat

Reheat in the air fryer at 360°F for 3-4 minutes until crispy again. Never microwave or the breading will turn soft and rubbery.
