Air Fried Garlic Parmesan Chicken Tenders

There is no question chicken wings in the air fryer are amazing. I have to say these chicken tenders are a very close second with just the right amount of parmesan and garlic. Jim and I ate these in no time! Jim was checking the fridge for more chicken so I could make more! We are not huge ranch dressing fans over here but these would be great dipped in it. I think the pickiest of eaters would enjoy these and so much better than those fast food places!

INGREDIENTS

8 raw chicken tenders

1 egg

2 Tablespoons of water

Spritzer with olive oil

1 cup panko breadcrumbs, I used gluten free so Robby could enjoy them too!

pinch is salt

pinch of pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

ranch dressing-optional

DIRECTIONS

Whisk the egg and water in a bowl big enough to dip the chicken tenders in. In a second bowl also big enough for the chicken, combine the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper,garlic powder, onion powder and Parmesan cheese. Dip the chicken tenders in to the egg mixture then into the panko mixture. Place the chicken tenders into your air fryer. Spritz the chicken tenders with oil and fry on 400 degrees for 6 minutes, turn the chicken pieces over, spritz again and continue to fry of 5-6 more minutes. Serve with ranch dressing if desired.

Enjoy!
