Maple Air Fried Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

* Optional Substitution Note

Ingredients for 4 servings

  • 1 ½ lb chicken breast tenders
  • Marinade
    • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
    • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
    • 2 teaspoons onion powder
    • Pinch of sea salt & pepper
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot
  • 1 ½ cups corn flakes (crushed)

Steps

Step 1

Pat chicken dry with paper towels and trim any large visible pieces of fat.  To a bowl, add chicken and the ingredients for the marinade.  Cover and marinate for 20 minutes, or place in the fridge to marinate for 1 to 2 hours.

Drain any excess liquid from the bowl with the chicken, then sprinkle arrowroot over the chicken and mix together.  Note: it should be very sticky so you may want to use a spatula.

Set air fryer to 400F (or oven to 420F).

Place the corn flakes on a plate or a flat surface, then roll the chicken tender across the flakes, mashing them into the flakes.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hey, I'm Kevin

My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and maintaining an active lifestyle.

By experimenting in the kitchen and sharing my meals on Tumblr, I learned healthy eating is not boring! By making a few adjustments to my favorite foods, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my wellness goals while satisfying my desire for BANGIN food! 😅 Now I try to help people around the world realize that same level of freedom in eating regardless of budget. Welcome, let's #DemocratizeWellness together!
