Everything bagel seasoning makes these Air Fryer Chicken Tenders simple but satisfying!

Grab your favorite Everything seasoning and some chicken tenders, heat up the air fryer (I use the Instant Pot Vortex Plus), and you’ve got crispy, juicy, full flavored chicken tenders in just 10 minutes. Everyone is going to love these, and they happen to be Keto friendly too!

Enjoy eating these chicken tenders with a dipping sauce of your choosing, or slice them into pieces, and turn a regular salad into something more filling. Great for lunch or a light dinner. They also make a healthy kid friendly snack that is great cold or re-heated.

How do you cook chicken tenders in the air fryer?

Good news, it’s super simple to cook chicken tenders in the air fryer, and while I’ve seasoned mine with Everything Bagel seasoning, you can certainly change the flavours using any homemade or store bought seasoning mix that you and your family enjoy.

• Prepare your chicken tenders, removing any skin or fat
• Lightly coat in oil
• Coat with your choice of seasoning
• Air Fry until done

If you can’t find chicken tenders, you can still make this recipe. Use boneless skinless chicken breasts, and slice in half horizontally to make cutlets. These will cook more quickly and give a similar texture to chicken tenders.
