Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon paprika

  • 1 tablespoon parsley flakes

  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 ½ pounds chicken tenderloins

  • cooking spray

Directions

  1. Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.

  2. Meanwhile, combine flour, paprika, parsley, seasoned salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Beat egg in a separate bowl.

  3. Dredge each chicken tender in seasoned flour. Dip in beaten egg, then back in seasoned flour.

  4. Coat basket with cooking spray; place as many coated chicken tenders in the air fryer basket as you can without overcrowding. Lightly mist the tops of the tenders with cooking spray.

  5. Cook in the preheated air fryer for 8 minutes. Flip chicken over and lightly mist the tops with more cooking spray. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 7 to 8 minutes more. Repeat with any remaining chicken tenders.
