Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
- Place the chicken tenders in a medium or large mixing bowl and drizzle the olive oil over them.
- Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the chicken tenders, then gently toss them to ensure even coating.
- Arrange the seasoned chicken tenders in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.
- Air fry the chicken tenders for about 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) when tested with a meat thermometer.
- Once cooked, remove the naked chicken tenders from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve this easy meal with your favorite dipping sauce, such as buffalo sauce, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
Notes
- Even Coating: Make sure the raw chicken tenders are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture for consistent flavor in every bite.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: This ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and crisps up nicely as well.
- Single Layer: Arrange the chicken tenders in a single layer in the air fryer basket for even cooking.
- Monitor Temperature: Use an instant-read thermometer to check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption and to prevent over-cooking the chicken.
- Flip Halfway Through: For even browning flip the chicken tenders halfway through the cooking time.
- Let Them Rest: Allow the cooked chicken fingers to rest for a few minutes before serving so you can end up with juicy chicken tenderloins.
