Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders
- 2 cups crushed nacho cheese Doritos (about 1 9oz bag)
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1/2 cup milk
- cooking spray
- fresh chopped parsley for garnish
- ranch dressing for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F and lightly grease the basket with olive oil. In 3 separate shallow dishes, and in this order, add the all-purpose flour with the salt and pepper, eggs and milk together, and crushed Doritos.
- Dredge each chicken tender in the flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and milk mixture, and shake to allow the excess egg to run off. Finally, coat it with the crushed Doritos, pressing gently to make sure they stick to the chicken. Place the coated chicken tenders in a single layer in the air fryer basket, with about a 1/2 inch of space in between.
- Lightly spray the chicken pieces with olive oil spray and air fry the for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the cooked chicken tenders to a serving plate and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce!
- Serve the Air Fryer Doritos Chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
