Air fryer cornflake chicken ready in under 30 minutes. For a complete meal, I serve these crispy, crunchy chicken fingers with coleslaw, corn on the cob, and a dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 cup cornflakes, crushed
- 1 serving avocado oil cooking spray
Directions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Season chicken with poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
- Place beaten egg onto a small rimmed plate. Place cornflakes onto a second rimmed plate.
- Dip chicken in beaten egg, then press in cornflakes to coat. Place in the air fryer basket and spray the tops with avocado oil.
- Cook in the preheated air fryer for 7 to 8 minutes. Flip chicken, spray again with avocado oil, and air fry for 3 to 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
