By now I’m sure you’ve read about my love for my Avalon Bay AB-Air Fryer100W. It makes all of my favorites using NO OIL! I love the versatility that it offers me when making lunch or dinner.
Last night my boyfriend wanted a quick meal to eat + I only had a limited number of groceries in my freezer/refrigerator. I had some chicken tenderloins so I decided to make homemade chicken tenders.
Here’s the quick + easy recipe:
Ingredients:
+ 1 lb raw chicken tenderloins
+ 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
+ 1 egg
Instructions:
1) Season chicken tenderloins with the seasonings of your choice. I used adobo, garlic + black pepper.
2) Dip chicken tenderloins (one by one) in egg + coat both sides.
3) Roll each chicken tenderloin in panko bread crumbs. Coat evenly.
4) Spray a little olive oil spray at the bottom of the air fryer pan + lay 6-7 tenderloins on the tray.
5) Set your air fryer to 392° + cook for 20 minutes.
6) Choose dipping sauces + enjoy!
Here’s the finished product:
Don’t have an air fryer? Take this easy Homemade Chicken Tender recipe + make it in your oven or deep fryer!

Why does mine turn out black in places and totally not browned anywhere else? I just got my air fryer and so far my experiments haven’t been going well. I used a flour and bread crumb combination.

Do you have the Avalon Bay air fryer? Also, my recipe uses panko crumbs. I tend not to use flour in the air fryer because it doesn’t cook as well to me.

So easy and delicious! But mine could have been done in less time. Maybe a different air fryer? So good though and I will do it again!

Do you have an Avalon Bay airfryer or another brand? I’m sure cook times may vary depending on which model you have.

Just bought one this week and so far have done fries and frozen fish which tasted delicious. Tried chicken breast using flour and egg batter, I didn’t care for it but the wings without any batter were good. Will try doing it your way and see how it turns out.

I use flour and bread crumbs, dip in egg, then flour, “for extra crispness add a TBSP of olive oil to bread crumbs and toss well) then dip in bread crumbs.

How long do you have to preheat the airfryer for before the 20 mins cooking time?

Hi! I never preheat my airfryer. I just turn it on when I’m ready to cook. Mine doesn’t have a preheat option.

I loved the recipe. Since I am gluten free I substituted the panko with 1/2 almond and 1/2 coconut flours. Delicious

I don’t see why not! Your cooking time may vary though since it’s nor the same air fryer. Adjust your settings accordingly.
