So I made these Air Fryer Parmesan Ranch Chicken Tenders twice already. Both times I made them after I got home from the grocery store while I was putting groceries away. Then Boom done lunch was ready for Sofie and me in under 15 minutes. It’s an amazing thing 🙂

How to make these chicken tenders in the Air Fryer:

First combine ranch dressing and garlic in one bowl. In another bowl combine the panko bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Next dip the chicken tenders in the ranch mixture. Then dip them in the bread crumb mixture.

Next place in the Air Fryer and then drizzle or brush some olive oil over the tenders.

Set the Ar Fryer to 390 degrees and cook for about 5-6 minutes and then flip the chicken and continue to cook for another 5-6 minutes.

Don’t have an Air Fryer?? No worries, you can bake these too. I recommend 425 for about 8 minutes on each side or until internal temp reaches 165.
