Ingredients
•
1 egg
•
1 tablespoon pesto
•
1 pinch salt
•
1 cup crushed cornflakes
•
1 ounce finely shredded Parmesan cheese
•
1/2 teaspoon cantanzaro herbs (such as Savory Spice Shop®)
•
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
•
1 pinch salt
•
1 pound chicken tenders
Directions
1
Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
Mix together egg, pesto, and salt in a shallow dish. In a separate dish mix together cornflake crumbs, Parmesan cheese, cantanzaro herbs, garlic, and salt.
3
Dip each piece of chicken piece first in egg wash, then dredge through the cornflake mixture, shaking off excess breading. Place chicken pieces in the air fryer basket.
4
Air fry for 5 minutes, rearrange chicken pieces, and fry until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes more.
