Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 5 minutes. Be sure that the air fryer reaches its full temperature before using for best results.
- In a shallow dish, mix together 1/2 cup of flour. In a separate dish, beat together the egg and milk. In a third dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, 1 cup of flour, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika.
- Working one at a time, coat each chicken tender in the plain flour, then the egg mixture, and then the breadcrumb mixture. Make sure each tender is thoroughly coated.
- Place 3-4 chicken tenders in the air fryer basket, being careful not to overcrowd it. Spritz the tenders with cooking oil to help them crisp up.
- Cook the chicken tenders at 400°F for 5-6 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Serve the chicken tenders hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
