These air-fryer chicken tenders will have you ditching the store-bought version in no time.

Lightly flavored with Italian seasoning, these chicken tenders cook up extra crispy in the air fryer.

We love them paired with honey mustard, but ketchup or ranch dressing will work well too.

Place flour in a shallow bowl.

Place eggs in a separate shallow bowl.

Combine panko and Italian seasoning in a separate shallow bowl, stirring to combine.

Sprinkle chicken tenders with pepper.

Working with 1 tender at a time, dredge the chicken in the flour, shaking off excess.

Dip in the eggs to coat, letting excess drip off.

Dredge in the panko mixture, pressing to adhere.

Transfer to a large plate.

Working in batches if necessary, generously coat all sides of the chicken with cooking spray.

Serve with honey mustard, if desired.
