Delicious Air Fryer Coconut Chicken Recipe

Step 1

Start by preheating your air fryer to a toasty 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) while you get your ingredients ready.

Step 2

In one bowl, mix together tapioca starch, jerk seasoning, and garlic for a flavorful dry blend. In another bowl, beat an egg with a splash of hot sauce to create a zesty egg wash. And in a third bowl, combine corn flakes and coconut flakes for a crunchy crust.

Step 3

Take each chicken tender and coat it first in the dry mix, then the egg wash, and finally the crust mixture, making sure to shake off any extra along the way.

Step 4

Once all the tenders are coated, gently place them in the air fryer basket and let them cook on high for about 6 minutes. Give them a flip and cook for another 6 minutes until they are perfectly cooked through and delightfully crispy on the outside. Enjoy your homemade crispy chicken tenders!
