Scale
- 8 pieces chicken tenders
- 1 cup crushed corn flakes
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- Korean Style Sauce
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 stalks green onion (whites and greens separated)
- 2 tbsp gochujang
- 3 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp ketchup
- 2 tbsp mirin

Instructions
- Prepare the chicken tenders by washing and patting them dry with a paper towel.
- Air fry the chicken tenders: In a bowl, mix the crushed corn flakes, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs. Dip each chicken tender first in the eggs, then coat it with the cornflake mixture. Place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Spray with avocado oil and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden, flipping halfway.
- Prepare the Korean style sauce: In a small saucepan, heat a little oil and sauté the minced garlic and white parts of green onions until fragrant. Add the gochujang, honey, ketchup, mirin, and sesame oil. Cook until combined and warmed through.
- Coat the chicken tenders in the Korean style sauce until well coated.
- Serve: Place the chicken on a platter and sprinkle with the green parts of the green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
Make sure to coat the chicken evenly for a better crunch. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket.
