This Air Fryer Chicken Tenders Recipe will be made often in my house! I love how easy they are to make and that Isabella was able to make them alongside me! On Weight Watchers, boneless skinless chicken breasts are a zero point food, even better when it’s food the kids love.

How To Make Air Fryer Chicken Tenders:
Fill a bowl with water and garlic salt, enough to cover your chicken tenderloins.
Add your chicken tenderloins to the water and allow them to sit in the brine for about 15-30 minutes. (I allowed this to set while I got the other ingredients and the rest of dinner together.)
In a bowl, mix the panko, ranch seasoning, and garlic powder.
Mix the dry ingredients well with a fork until it is well blended.
In another bowl, crack your eggs and whisk your eggs for the egg wash.

Spray your Air Fryer racks with non-stick spray.
Drag a tenderloin through the egg wash and then coat in your breadcrumb mixture.

Next, spread the breaded chicken tenderloin on your Air Fryer rack.

Repeat the process until all your chicken tenderloins are coated.
Place your racks in your Air Fryer and close it up.

Turn your Air Fryer to 375 degrees and set the time to 30 minutes, I ended up cooking mine for 35 minutes.

Serve and enjoy!!

Air Fryer Chicken Tenders Recipe Point Breakdown
The only thing that has points in this recipe is the breadcrumbs. I have made this since and used fewer breadcrumbs on my tenders.

A Note From Jenny
When starting any healthy lifestyle, consult a doctor to address any personal health concerns. Some things can only be addressed medically and by a professional. Blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and hormones checked at a physical before starting and at least once a year, as these all can affect an active lifestyle.
With so many different programs, such as Weight Watchers, Keto, and macros, it can be hard to know what to pick. (If you’re interested in Weight Watchers, you can sign up -> here and sign up for $10/month for 10 months.)
I personally use the app Myfitnesspal to track my food. I use macros and focus on High Protein (calories, fat, protein, and carbohydrates) and rotate through cuts and maintenance calories. (Use a calculator like this -> here) . I did WW for years, but now that I am more maintenance, with cuts throughout the year, and focusing on mobility with strength training. There is no right or wrong answer, as all bodies are different.
