Ingredients

6 servings

  • 3 chicken breasts, cut in half and flattened thin
  • ½ cup flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon classic yellow mustard
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • paprika, to taste
  • 1 box panko breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika evenly and on both sides.
  • In a shallow bowl, add the flour and in a second, separate bowl, add the eggs and yellow mustard and whisk together. In a third bowl, add the panko bread crumbs (you’re essentially creating a dredge to coat the chicken).
  • Coat the chicken breast with flour, then the egg wash, then bread crumbs, breading the tender. Move to a separate tray or plate and repeat with the remaining 5 tenders. Refrigerate for 10-20 minutes.
  • Set the air fryer to 400°F and add a few tenders at a time, ensuring not to layer them over each other.
  • Air-fry for 15 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for 12-15 minutes more. Then, move tenders to a cutting board or platter and cover with foil. Continue air frying the rest.
  • While the tenders are cooking, in a separate clean bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the honey mustard sauce.
  • Serve.
