Air fryer chicken

The recipe below is basically how I made this chicken.

It was a good example but I used what I had.  I sliced in strips 2 chicken  breasts.

Made my own seasoned bread crumbs with Salt, pepper, paprika, parsley, onion and garlic powder.  I prefer mine over store bought seasoned bread crumbs. Dipped in egg and then breadcrumbs shaking off extra crumbs before placing in fryer.

  Note:  only use a spray mist on food that goes in your fryer. Other can cause a residue.

I have found that air fryer timing isn’t an exact science so I check every several minutes.  Chicken cooks quicker than meat so don’t overcook!







  • 12 chicken tenders (1 1/4 lbs)
  • 2 large eggsbeaten
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • black pepperto taste
  • 1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs*
  • 1/2 cup seasoned panko*
  • olive oil spray
  • lemon wedgesfor serving


  • Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Place egg in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs and panko.
  • Dip chicken in the egg, then into the breadcrumb mixture and shake off excess and place on a large dish or cutting board. Spray both sides of the chicken generously with oil.
  • Spray both sides of the chicken generously with oil.
  • Preheat air fryer to 400F.
  • In batches, cook the chicken 5 to 6 minutes on each side, turning halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and crispy and golden on the outside. Serve with lemon wedges.
