Directions

1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3 Whisk egg in a small bowl.
4 Mix bread crumbs and oil together in a second bowl until mixture becomes loose and crumbly.
5 Dip each chicken tenderloin into the bowl of egg; shake off any residual egg. Dip chicken into crumb mixture, making sure it is evenly and fully covered.
6 Lay chicken tenderloins in the air fryer basket in an even layer.
