Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into strips and patted dry
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 2 teaspoons garlic salt
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Place flour in a small bowl, and beaten eggs in a separate small bowl.
  • Mix together breadcrumbs, garlic salt, dried oregano, paprika, and ground black pepper in a third bowl.
  • Dredge each chicken strip in flour, then egg, and then breadcrumb mixture.
  • Lightly spray chicken tenders with cooking spray and place into crisper basket in Ninja Foodi, in a single layer. Set Foodi to 'air crisp' at 390 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes, flipping tenders halfway through for even browning.
  • Serve chicken tenders with your favorite dipping sauce, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store any leftovers in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, simply use a gluten-free flour like almond flour instead of all-purpose.
  • Depending on the size of your Foodi or air fryer, you may need to air crisp in multiple batches. Keep finished tenders in your oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit to keep them warm while you're crisping more.
  • Safety first! I love using my silicone oven mitts and tongs to keep myself safe while cooking with my Ninja Foodi.
