Expert Tips

Avoid over crowding the air fryer! It is important that the chicken has some room and is not touching each other in order to get nice and crispy. Work in batches if your air fryer doesn’t have enough space to do it all at once. Make extra and freeze! You can make these ahead and freeze them after they have cooled in order to have extra chicken strips on hand to reheat later. For ease, buy chicken tenderloins at the store. These are basically just chicken breast cut into smaller strips which are perfect for air fryer chicken tenders! To avoid breading your fingers, use one hand for dipping the chicken strips into the flour and breadcrumbs and the other hand for the egg mixture! That way, one hand stays dry! These perfectly dunk-able air fryer chicken strips would go well with so many sauces! In addition to Asian-style sauces, you can try BBQ sauce, ranch, or buffalo sauce!
