Ingredients
  

  • 15 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Tenderloins Thawed
  • 3/4 Cup Milk
  • 1/4 Cup Dill Pickle Juice
  • 1 Egg Beaten
  • 1 Cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour or Regular Flour
  • 1 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Paprika
  • 1/4 Tsp Black Pepper
  • Grapeseed Oil Spray

Instructions
 

  • In a Ziploc bag, combine the milk, pickle juice, and egg. Depending on the amount of chicken, 2 bags may be needed. Each bag fits about 8-10.
  • Place the chicken inside the bag and seal it up, lay it flat so all the chicken is covered. It's best to place inside another pan in case of leaks.
  • Let this sit in the fridge overnight or at least 4 hours.
  • Once you are ready to cook the chicken, combine the flour, salt, paprika, and ground pepper in another bag.
  • Take the chicken out of the marinade, letting the excess marinade drip off it and then place it inside the bag with the flour mixture.
  • Seal and shake the bag so all the chicken is well coated in the mixture.
  • Spray the air fryer basket with oil spray. Carefully remove the chicken from the bag, shaking off the excess, and place the chicken in the basket of the air fryer.
  • Coat the chicken with grapeseed oil spray.
  • Cook at 390°F for 6 minutes.
  • Carefully turn the chicken, coat it with additional spray, and cook for an additional 6 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165°F.
  • Repeat the process for the remaining chicken.
  • To get the golden brown look, spray with grapeseed oil spray just before serving.

Notes

Cook times do vary depending on the air fryer because sometimes they put off a different amount of heat. The internal temperature must be at least 165°F to be well done.
