Ingredients

• 1 pound Chicken tenders
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are well combined.

Step 4

Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels.

Step 5

Dip each chicken tender into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.

Step 6

Transfer the chicken tender to the almond flour mixture and coat evenly. Press gently to ensure the coating sticks.

Step 7

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 8

Place the coated chicken tenders in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not touching or overlapping.

Step 9

Lightly spray the tops of the chicken tenders with non-stick cooking spray to promote even browning.

Step 10

Air fry the chicken tenders at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 11

Remove from the air fryer and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce or a side salad.
