Ingredients
Chicken Marinade
- 1 lb chicken tenders
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1Â garlic clove
Breading mixture
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp pepper
- 1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Make the marinade and add the chicken
Put the one pound of chicken tenders in a big bowl with the 1/4 mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1 squeezed garlic clove. I suggest using this grater for pressing the garlic. In my kitchen, it’s my favorite tool.
Gently toss the chicken in the marinade. The chicken tenders can be marinated for several hours or even overnight for maximum taste. You can then start dredging them.
Dredge in bread crumb mixture
Next, combine 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, 1/2 cup normal bread crumbs, 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper to produce the breading.
The chicken tenders should then be liberally covered in the breading mixture.
About 4 tenders at a time, place the breaded chicken on the air fryer basket. Next, use your own oil mister or cooking spray to lightly mist the top of the breaded chicken and the bottom of the basket with avocado oil spray.
