These air fryer chicken tenderloins beat chicken nuggets any day and the recipe is so simple. I tend to use chicken tenderloins but you can use sliced chicken breasts if easier.
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup dry bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 8 chicken tenderloins
Directions
Step 1
Gather all ingredients.
Step 2
Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 3
Whisk egg in a small bowl.
Step 4
Mix bread crumbs and oil together in a second bowl until mixture becomes loose and crumbly.
Step 5
Dip each chicken tenderloin into the bowl of egg; shake off any residual egg. Dip chicken into crumb mixture, making sure it is evenly and fully covered.
Step 6
Lay chicken tenderloins in the air fryer basket in an even layer.
Step 7
Air-fry until no longer pink in the center, about 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Step 8
Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips
You can substitute butter for vegetable oil if desired.
