We’re drooling over these viral, cornflake chicken fingers cooked in the air fryer. They’ve got a gorgeous crunch and some added flair with Epicure Fries Seasoning. Find gluten-free cornflakes at the grocery store or swap them for a package of Crispy & Crunchy Coating Mix. Pop your chicken tendies on top of a Caesar salad, serve them in a wrap, or get your dipping sauces ready! 


Ingredients
Preparation
  1. Preheat air fryer to 400° F. 
  2. Place cornflakes in a resealable bag, seal and crush with a rolling pin into a coarse crumb. Mix in 2 tbsp seasoning and pour into a shallow dish.
  3. In a large bowl, add chicken and mayo; toss to coat. 
  4. Using tongs or your hands, add chicken to cornflake mixture one piece at a time, rotating and pressing mix on both sides of chicken to coat. 
  5. Place coated chicken in air fryer basket in a single layer and spritz with cooking spray. (Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook chicken in two batches.) Cook 5–6 min. Using tongs, flip chicken and spritz with more cooking spray. Cook an additional 5–6 min, or until chicken is cooked through. 
  6. To prepare sauce, in a small bowl, combine remaining 12 tsp seasoning, honey, and soy sauce. 
  7. To serve, drizzle sauce over chicken tenders just before serving. 
Tips

To easily crush cornflakes, pulse in a food processor. 

For a hot honey topping, microwave honey mixture on medium (50%) power for 30 seconds before drizzling over chicken tenders.
