Directions

1. In a sealable plastic bag or large bowl, add the chicken and the spice rub (paprika, rosemary, pepper). Mix and rub it all over the chicken. Marinate at least 20 minutes covered in the fridge, but better if left overnight. Set the air-fryer (or oven) to 420F. In 3 separate bowls, add panko crumbs AND parmesan, in another bowl whisk together the eggs, and in the last bowl add the almond flour. Dip the tenders in the almond flour, then the eggs, then the parmesan-crumb mix. Place it in the air-fryer basket or a baking sheet lined with parchment. Repeat for remaining tenders. Lightly spray the tenders with avocado oil, then air-fry for 8-10 minutes, or bake for 10 – 12 minutes, or until the outside is golden brown and the inside is cooked through (white).
