Step 1
Begin by preheating your air fryer to a sizzling 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the egg, pesto, and a sprinkle of salt, whisking until the mixture is smooth and well blended.

Take each chicken piece and dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off before moving on.

Next, coat the chicken in the cornflake mixture, pressing gently to ensure a delightful, even layer.
Step 6
Arrange the coated chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they have space to crisp up beautifully.
