WHY MAKE THIS RECIPE

Healthier - Chicken tenders in an air fryer use very little olive oil, so they are healthier but still taste great. Air-frying is a great option for healthier fried foods.

INGREDIENTS

Buttermilk Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika Powder Chicken Tenderloins

HOW TO MAKE Air Fryer Chicken Tenders

In a large bowl, whisk the buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, paprika, pepper and coriander.

Add the chicken and stir to coat all of the chicken pieces. Cover the bowl and marinate the chicken tenders in the fridge for at least 1 hour or up to 6 hours.

Set aside 1 ½ cups of the marinade and stir in ½ cup of the flour until combined. Discard the remaining marinade.

Add the remaining half cup of flour to a shallow bowl and the breadcrumbs to a separate shallow bowl.
