Air Fryer Crumbed Chicken Tenderloins: Crispy & Delicious!

Ingredients

• 1 large egg
• 0.5 cup dry bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 8 chicken tenderloins

Instructions

1. Ensure you have all the necessary ingredients prepared and within reach.
2. Preheat your air fryer to a temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for optimal cooking.
3. In a small bowl, whisk the egg until it's well combined and slightly frothy.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the bread crumbs and oil, mixing until the mixture is loose and resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Take each chicken tenderloin and dip it into the whisked egg, shaking off any excess. Then, immediately transfer the chicken into the crumb mixture, ensuring it's evenly and completely coated on all sides.
6. Arrange the coated chicken tenderloins in the air fryer basket in a single, even layer, being careful not to overcrowd them.
7. Air fry the chicken until it's cooked through and no longer pink in the center, approximately 12 minutes. To ensure it's fully cooked, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
8. Serve the hot, crispy air-fried chicken immediately and savor the deliciousness!
