Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Ensure the basket is clean and lightly greased.
  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and mayonnaise until well combined. This mixture will help the breading stick to the chicken.
  3. In a separate shallow bowl, mix the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and paprika. This blend will give your chicken tenders a crispy coating.
  4. Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dredge the strips in the almond flour mixture one at a time, pressing gently to adhere the breading. Shake off any excess. Gently brush the melted butter onto the breaded tenders.
  5. Place the breaded tenders in the basket in a single layer, making sure they aren't overlapping or touching. Cook for 10 minutes, flip the tenders, and cook for another 5-8 minutes until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  6. Let the tenders rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with a side of mixed greens or your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
