- Preheat air fryer to 400° F.
- 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.
- In a large bowl, add chicken and mayo; toss to coat.
- 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.
- 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.
- To prepare sauce, in a small bowl, combine remaining 1⁄2 tsp seasoning, honey, and soy sauce.
- To serve, drizzle sauce over chicken tenders just before serving.
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.
Serve with 1⁄2 cup cooked grains, your choice, and 2 tbsp leafy greens with 1 tbsp Epicure Dressing.
