This crusting takes chicken from drab to fab! With less than 8 ingredients it’s also fast to prepare! I use seasonings from the Savory Spice Shop®, however you can use Italian seasoning in place of the cantanzaro herbs.
Ingredients
Egg wash
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon pesto
- 1 pinch salt
Dry mix
- 1 cup crushed cornflakes
- 1 ounce finely shredded Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon cantanzaro herbs (such as Savory Spice Shop®)
- ½ teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pound chicken tenders
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix together egg, pesto, and salt in a shallow dish. In a separate dish mix together cornflake crumbs, Parmesan cheese, cantanzaro herbs, garlic, and salt.
Step 3
Dip each piece of chicken piece first in egg wash, then dredge through the cornflake mixture, shaking off excess breading. Place chicken pieces in the air fryer basket.
Step 4
Air fry for 5 minutes, rearrange chicken pieces, and fry until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes more.
Recipe Tip
You can use chicken breasts cut into strips instead of chicken tenders.
