How to make delicious chicken tenders with Air Fryer?

Ingredients

1 egg
1 lemon
1 tablespoon pesto
1 cup crushed cornflakes/bread crumbs
1 ounce finely shredded cheese
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
2 pinch salt
1 pound chicken tenders



Step 1
Preheat the air fryer to about 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, finely shredded cheese, garlic, and salt.

Step 3
Dip each piece of the 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.

Step 5
Squeeze a little lemon juice on the chicken tenders

Note:
1. You can also use chicken breasts cut into strips instead of chicken tenders.
2. You can substitute butter for the vegetable oil if desired.
