Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F for 5 minutes.
  • Pat dry the chicken tenderloins with a paper towel.
  • In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, granulated garlic, paprika powder, oregano and celery salt.
  • Season the chicken tenders on all sides with the spices. For an even bigger kick try 2-3 tsp of this KFC Spice Blend instead.
  • Spray the inside of the air fryer with an olive oil mist spray which is safe for air fryers.
  • Transfer the unbreaded chicken tenders to the air fryer and cook at 375 degrees F for 12-15 minutes (flipping halfway) or until a kitchen thermometerinserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 165 degrees F.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
