Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken tenders in dill pickle juice for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  3. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Dredge each chicken tender in flour, dip in egg, and coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Place the breaded chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  6. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, spray the tenders with cooking spray before air frying.
  • Adjust the seasoning in the breadcrumb mixture to your taste.
  • These tenders can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
