Air Fryer Chicken Tenders: An Amazing Ultimate Low-Carb and Gluten-Free Recipe

  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 ½ pounds chicken tenders
– 1 cup almond flour
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– ½ teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 2 large eggs
– Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing the basket

Instructions

Creating Air Fryer Chicken Tenders is straightforward and can be accomplished in just a few simple steps:

1. Preheat Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and preheat it for about 5 minutes.
2. Prepare Breading Mixture: In a bowl, combine almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Prepare Egg Wash: In another bowl, whisk the eggs until well mixed.
4. Coat Chicken Tenders: Dip each chicken tender first into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Next, coat it well with the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Arrange in Air Fryer: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the coated chicken tenders in a single layer in the basket, ensuring they do not overlap.
6. Air Fry: Cook the chicken tenders for 10 minutes. Then flip them over and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and are golden brown.
7. Remove and Serve: Carefully remove the tenders from the air fryer and place them on a plate. Optionally, you can spray them lightly with olive oil for added crunch.

These steps will guide you in creating perfectly crispy chicken tenders that everyone will love!
