My Lord, this is like a masterclass in air frying. I cannot thank you enough. I just bought my first air fryer and you have been my favorite instructor. Well done you.
Thank you for this research! I’ve tried yesterday 3 ways - corn flakes, pringles and panko. My family had a blast! They liked all, but classic panko that I used in the past went from 10 to 8! And corn flakes now are on 10 and potatoes chips are on 9,5. Thank you for inspiration!
I made delicious chicken tenders last night in my Heritage Air Fryer Convection oven and they turned out amazingly. I used Organic Blanched Almond Flour and Unsweetened shaved coconut for the coating. It was amazing. Dipping sauce was Sriracha, Maple Syrup sauce. It was amazing.
This is amazing! We only ever see the final best version/technique, but it was great to see your testing process and seeing how some things don’t work. Would love to see more of these types of videos
For my three part breading system, I love using pie plates instead of bowls. Lots of room, it's flat allowing the ingredients to spread out. It really does work well
I love double breading my chicken tenders when I do them in the air fryer. Flour, Egg Wash, Bread Crumbs, and then repeat that process. Makes them extra crunchy!!
I must say, @ProHomeCooks is my new hero. I've now watched almost all the videos, (including Brother's Green) and this is my go-to guy for making quick meals on a home cook scale. Sure I have watched so many others, but he is straightforward and easy to follow.
Wonderful. I not only want to know how to do something well, I appreciate understanding why it works. Too many times (with regards to kitchen rituals) I hear people say ... "We always do it like this ...". However, I also like to know why. In this video - all is revealed. GREAT
I love your recipes...thank you! I put some buttermilk in my egg after soaking the chicken.. and season my flour and panko....paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. I cook at 390..flipping and spraying after 8 min. The breading stays on 100%...thick and crunchy...and this is better than any deep fried chicken we've ever had.
TLDR: toast the grated almonds first long version: here in Brazil, we use grated manioca (or corn) flakes for breading (called "farinha")... and if we toast those grated manioca and season it, we make "farofa", which in itself is a common brazilian crunchy side dish. And many times we add grated ant toasted nuts to the "farofa" for more texture and flavor... Turns out, i tried breading chicken (or beef) with toasted grated almond (alone or mixture with panko) and it went great... Cashew nuts are even better
YEAH TOAST THE NUTS FIRSTTTT just frigging toast them a bit for some crunch. Toast the entire breading cause toasted sesame seeds are fucking great as well
@@LuvLexyU Agreed I tried all of these and by far the best was the toasted peanuts if you aren't afraid of really cooking that dark meat then you can get them crispy as all hell and so delicious.
Perfect timing on this!😁 In April I had a gallbladder attack and when I saw my doctor she said "NO beef and NO greasy food"☹️. So I've been looking for healthier alternatives to my favorites...I like the corn flakes breading and for a spray instead of avocado oil I'll use olive oil spray. My substitute for French Fries: I use red potatoes, cut them into wedges and steam cook for 4 minutes. Rinse and dry on paper towel. Then freeze them. When I want to make fries I just use 2 tbsp of olive oil in nonstick pan and brown. Then coat in my favorite seasoning mix. Crispy and not greasy.😁
Thanks! Just did the wet batter fail, and this is just what I was looking for. The other options, other than your best for tenders, were also something to keep in mind possibly for other use models.
This video inspired me to try some creative breading. I usually do flour->egg-> flour but today I did masa harina instead of regular flour and the flavor was incredible!! Highly recommend!
I have figured out that your target audience is not diabetics, however, when you do tests like this if you could also add a healthy option which you do (low carb) such as cauliflower rice vs. white rice, you might get more viewers. I have been researching what I can do in my air fryer and someday try this for chicken tenders: Lupin flower for the first coat, egg (of course), and then 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese, 1/3 cup of pork panko and 1/3 cup of EverCrisp. For those who don't make sauces from scratch, G Hughes makes many low-sugar sauces a diabetic can use in moderation. I love what you demonstrate and appreciate your advice.
Great episode-Thank you!. Appreciate the many trial methods, but not surprised by the winner. My dad used to make baked chicken coated in french dressing and cornflakes! Brilliant 😎
Hey, love you videos. One life hack to clean those air fryers is to use a silicone reusable Air Fryer liner that can go into the diswasher as well. Will save you so much time and energy
In blender 1. Saltiness crackers approximately 20 squares. 1 tbl spoon corn starch. 1 cup flour. Season mix as preferred. Coat tenders in egg white. Roll tenders in flour mixture. Spray tenders with oil. Ready to air fry. (saltiness crackers add a nice consistency and taste)
Check your device about the Oil....Some spray oils ruin the none stick. Buy a small Garden spray, fill it with oil of choice...saves your none stick and works... great vid bro
I once made some chicken strips covered with flour+egg and pork chicharron -pork skin chips- (the one that is sold in stores, like chips in a bag). Put the chicharron in the food processor, minced it and used it as "bread" and it gave GREAT results in texture, color and most of all, FLAVOR
Just made these with the cornflake breading and I am impressed. These are better than the ones you get at restaurants for a 1/4 of the price. Thanks for recipe!
Ritz or Club Crackers are hands down my favorite bredding for frying anything 🤌 be interested to see what it's like in an airfryer !! Especially the ritz bacon, roasted vegetables, or garlic butter
ATK used cornstarch and buttermilk with the cornflakes - you might try that instead of the flour and egg. They thought that combo made the most crunch! TFS.
What a great video for air fryer chefs!! 😍 Just love the whole concept of minimalism and how you managed to get such variety of consistencies with a change of just one ingredient!! Keep up the great work my friend!! ❤️🔥
My crumbs of choice is crushed nachos, give it a go! So much better than chips or plain corn flakes, it adds great flavor and I also sprinkle seasoning into crumbs or eggs, that way its incorporated and all over chicken and gets toasted!
I actually use the corn flakes breading for making a meat balls in air fryer. I wanted the meat balls to be less heavy and it works so good it's amazing... Crispy outer shell and cooked and tender inside!
I got air fryer for Xmas. I checked your recipe and today made chicken tenders in cornflakes. Whole family was really surprised how good this could be. Thank you
I mix the panco bread crumbs with cornflake bread crumbs. I spray them with avocado spray (healthiest), then hit it with light salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and a little paprika (both sides). Tastes amazing. So much flavor.
My personal favorite is the one with the cornflakes. I've also experimenting with different types of Bakerolls crums. Also worth trying especially if you already like some of their flavor mixes.
This is cool! I do have to say that my favorite breading is a mix of two that you've done. Panko+Kettle Chips make such a good crunchy breading that helps get that color.
Wow. I gotta try the potato chip and corn flake options. When I make tenders in the air fryer, I tend to use mayo instead of the 3-dip process. Massage chicken in mayo, drop in breading, pop in air fryer. No spray oil needed bc mayo gets the job done.
When you pulled out the corn flakes, I was all, NO! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT! But then I saw them and they looked mighty fine, and you gave them a 9.7, so now I've gotta make them. 🤤
Congrats on your fryer but I have to say, my husband once got me a food processor for Christmas and I asked how he would like a lawn mower for Christmas. We are no longer married. 😆
i always fine the best breading for my chicken in the air fryer is the planko cumbs, eggs, and flour. i put them in for 375 for 10 minutes. They are usually larger than those shown in the video.
I always use panko on my chicken when I air fry it, and I was so paranoid that I was doing something wrong because it never went golden brown. Now I know I need to try corn flakes haha
If you want to get an even coating of oil without a can of aerosol, the regular spray bottles work wonders. I bought a spray bottle of pan and reuse it. Fill it with whatever oil you like.
Would love to see how the mayo + crumb coatings go in the airfryer. Just coat chicken piece in mayo, roll in the crumb and off you go. Saves the flour and egg wash steps and gives a heap more flavour
Lol. I just commented about this. This is my preferred method. Way easier. I like to coat seasoned chicken in mayo, let it sit in my fridge for like a half hour then add some seasoned breading right before I toss in the AF
Try Greek yogurt to replace the egg and flour also I combine cornflakes panko and Italian bread crumbs then add a mixture of olive oil and melted butter to the crumb mixture the butter helps promote browning
@ProHomeCooks ... for air fryer chicken tenders try Schneiders of Hanover 'onion & honey mustard flavor' or the 'parmesan garlic flavor' pretzel pieces ground up as your final crumb coat
Back when the heat wave ovens were big my friend and I made chicken tenders with crushed saltine crackers and they were SO good! They are the best though fried in butter, or if you could dip them in butter and then fry them in the air fryer or maybe put melted butter in an oil sprayer and spray them with butter? All I know is that the saltines with butter are REALLY good, just like the old casserole toppers where you mix saltines with butter and put it on top of your casseroles. Idk if that's just an Ohio thing but our grandma's did that A LOT lol
@ProHomeCooks I promise toy won't regret this... TRY THIS TIP: Try using fried pork skins (pork rinds, the packaged snacks) in the food processor to grind them as the coating. It gives great flavor, the breading sticks and the texture is super crispy... + it is potentially a 0 carb version of chicken tenders.
no need for aerosol can... put your chosen oil in to any squirt bottle for a great alternative...oh, and to fix the colour you can pre-bake the breadcrumbs a few min before using them for breading! works amazing!
I've found using the grated parmesan cheese that you sprinkle on spaghetti makes a great crust for chicken and pork in an air fryer. Adds amazing flavor when you mix it with your favorite seasoning.
By George I think I've got it!!!! Crushed some rosemary triscuits with some gravey powder (since I couldnt find flour) and the reg spices. Didnt even need the flour dip,,, jus the egg and triscuit did the trick. Thanks bro for the vid, it definitely helped
Great video!! Wish you would do more quick 15 min meals, they're fantastic! I love my air fryer, and hardly use my oven anymore!! Noticed the "magic" in your air fryer, or perhaps great editing. 🤔😉 The potato chip breaded fingers, had 5 at the start and only 4 at the end of cooking. 😄
I make honey mustard too. I use yellow mustard not Dijon and I add paprika. In the Midwest we have a restaurant called Bakers Square which is where I found my favorite creamy honey mustard and base my recipe on that flavor profile.
I have a go-to fried chicken recipe using that buttermilk soak method. The key is to let the chicken rest on a rack after breading. The flour absorbs the liquid and becomes sticky. Then it doesn't fall off after air frying. Almost KFC like consistency. I also season the flour with a "copy-cat" KFC blend. So good.
This is the Tip! No one on food shows I’ve watched ever say this. I like to keep them in the same bowl dredge then top with more flour and let sit for 20-30 mins.
I like to use panko crumbs, and add just a little bit of oil to the crumbs beforehand, and mix that in to get them all lightly coated with oil. Then do the 3 part dredge. This way I'm not having to use a ton of oil sprayed on them and they get more evenly browned.
Try pretezls. I use the large sourdough pretezl rods and coat my chicken pieces with that and then run them through the air fryer. We think they are great!!
Love this style honey mustard. Been looking for a base recipe and this is a perfect start. I even subbed some of the jarred mustard with mustard powder. Love your recipes and your new kitchen! Happy cooking and gardening!
1) If you put some paprika in the breading you can get the color you want. 2) I think a mix of potato chip and bread crumb would work better; the bread crumbs would soak up some of the oil so it would crisp up. (Yeah, I'm the one who makes YOUR recipes and I'M telling YOU what to do? That's chutzpah! 3) I make baked tortilla chips; I'm thinking that would make a good breading too. 4) The kitchen reno is looking great. Is that a TV right above the range??? 5) Holy crap you need a lot of equipment to make your videos look this good.
Yummy! I'm in Oz. I bought a cusinart Airfryer and it burns everything...my husband wanted the Phillips one, like yours...looking forward to doing the chicken tenders! Thank you from Oz🥳🐝🐝🌻🌼
I’m I Oz too. You might be using too high temp. I think most set at 180, try lowering to 170 and doing say 6 mins , then check and turn and do a little longer. Experiment with it until you get what you like. Good luck
@@angeladundon7271 Hey Angela, have you made a full bbq chicken? That is one of the things I wanted to make rather than to buy a store bought one. Also my unit seems to smell of cooking fat, like deep fat frying?!!! Help!🙏😂
No I haven’t done a whole chicken , but I’ve done wings, drumsticks and those chicken portions. I prefer to do a whole chicken on my bbq. The smell might be fat that’s dripped down to the section under your tray. Check to see is you have some fat there and wash the tray in hot soapy water. I don’t wash tray every time just when it gets messy. My kids use it so I don’t realise how bad it is sometimes 😳 Try veg in it, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini…Yumm
When i make mine i put panko and some seasonings ( eg. smoked paprika, pepper, garlic salt, etc.) and i put it all in the blender and it becomes like a sand texture. I coat the chicken tenders in oil then dunk them in sand. Its the best breading
Oil aerosol sprays are hard to find here in the UK. I put the chicken in for a few minutes and then add oil using a small silicone brush to get it as light and even as possible
I cooked salmon for first time and it was awesome! Coated my hands with olive oil and held the filet to coat with a little oil and then the Panko. The salmon was crispy on the outside and soft and flaky inside.
Salmon is great in the air fryer isn't it? I dry my Salmon, salt and pepper and leave uncovered in the fridge for 6-8 hours. Just sprinkle a healthy amount of blackening and it is terrific.
I don't have an air fryer yet, but I'm wondering about blending the breading. For example, blending the potato chips and corn flakes for the breading to get the best of both types while offsetting the not-so-great results from using the breading individually.
Little tip for u, when u use airfryer flip your food on last 1-3 min then both sides have same crust and bottom are not that moist. Thanks for your hard work !
Hey I think you enjoy what I do for Shnitzel for Shabbos. With Equal parts honey mustard then egg or 2 salt paper mix and dunk the chicken in the batter. Can brine for hour till overnight. Then panko those guys, kids love it! I personally like it with honey mustard sirracha dip
My FAV breading for chicken and fish of all times, is pulverized pork rinds. Especially the spicy ones! I discovered this for myself (years ago) when I needed a zero carb breading. I was snacking on pork rinds and thought aha! 💡 I’ve not tried it in the air fryer (I have 2 Cosori’s, don’t judge) but now that I’ve seen this video I’m going to do it. Thank you for you expertise ☮️ & ❤️
Hey there guys ..i have a trick to cleaning the airfryer..evrryday when i use it ..wipe out with kitchen roll then wash with warm water and liquid 😅job done.good as new
Great vid! Corn flakes are king in my book. I usually don't even blend them, I just crushed them real hard with my hands and that gives the tendies that crust similar to the past one at the end, but the same could be achieved in the blender just pour one batch first and make it real usmooth and a second batch that doesn't get nearly as much blending and that should give you a great deal of variety and surface area on your crust.
i use the 3 part thick breading and i sometime skip the egg and replace it with the milk i was Marinating the chicken in it have to be double breading so the milk don't leak , and it comes sorta cooked in milk and so tender

For a quick airfry meal you can use a light coat of mayo then add bread crumbs. Works great for parm crusted chicken/salmon too.

no need for aerosol can... put your chosen oil in to any squirt bottle for a great alternative...oh, and to fix the colour you can pre-bake the breadcrumbs a few min before using them for breading! works amazing!
I recommend using 50/50 AP flour/rice flour. Worked well for me.
I've found using the grated parmesan cheese that you sprinkle on spaghetti makes a great crust for chicken and pork in an air fryer. Adds amazing flavor when you mix it with your favorite seasoning.
Frosted flakes might be good too.

Powerful tendie tips! That creamy honey mustard dip is dope
Toast the panko first in a pan in a bit of oil. Then do the breading. Helps tremendously with the golden colour at the end.
Glad you're still making these videos. For some reason I thought you had stopped.
Try pretezls. I use the large sourdough pretezl rods and coat my chicken pieces with that and then run them through the air fryer. We think they are great!!
O. M. G. I tried the cornflakes breading last night. It was so awesome. Super crunchy. Now I want to try it with seafood. 😋
Tried the cornflake batter and they are amazing, new staple
I just noticed the change in the kitchen. Looks really good!
loving the look of the blue fireplace
Love this style honey mustard. Been looking for a base recipe and this is a perfect start. I even subbed some of the jarred mustard with
mustard powder. Love your recipes and your new kitchen! Happy cooking and gardening!
@11.24. How deep are those drawers?! Wow, awesome! 👌🏼
You can try browning your panko in a frying pan with olive oil before breading. Will ensure the breading is always golden brown when it's done.

Thanks for the air fryer tips and spray oil suggestion.
Explore the honey dill sauce popular in Manitoba. Its the best sauce for tenders.
1) If you put some paprika in the breading you can get the color you want.
2) I think a mix of potato chip and bread crumb would work better; the bread crumbs would soak up some of the oil so it would crisp up. (Yeah, I'm the one who makes YOUR recipes and I'M telling YOU what to do? That's chutzpah!
3) I make baked tortilla chips; I'm thinking that would make a good breading too.
4) The kitchen reno is looking great. Is that a TV right above the range???
5) Holy crap you need a lot of equipment to make your videos look this good.
thanks for your trial and error cooking its very educational love it nobody does this, true original.
My mom would always use saltines for the breading, it was great
Yummy! I'm in Oz. I bought a cusinart Airfryer and it burns everything...my husband wanted the Phillips one, like yours...looking forward to doing the chicken tenders!
Thank you from Oz🥳🐝🐝🌻🌼
I’m I Oz too. You might be using too high temp. I think most set at 180, try lowering to 170 and doing say 6 mins , then check and turn and do a little longer. Experiment with it until you get what you like. Good luck

Hey Angela, have you made a full bbq chicken? That is one of the things I wanted to make rather than to buy a store bought one.
Also my unit seems to smell of cooking fat, like deep fat frying?!!!
Help!🙏😂
No I haven’t done a whole chicken , but I’ve done wings, drumsticks and those chicken portions. I prefer to do a whole chicken on my bbq.
The smell might be fat that’s dripped down to the section under your tray. Check to see is you have some fat there and wash the tray in hot soapy water. I don’t wash tray every time just when it gets messy. My kids use it so I don’t realise how bad it is sometimes 😳
Try veg in it, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini…Yumm
@@angeladundon7271
I have thoroughly cleaned it but the smell lingers!
Okay will give your ideas a go! Thank you!😁😄
Great channel, extremely helpful, succinct and sensibly entertaining. Well done!
When i make mine i put panko and some seasonings ( eg. smoked paprika, pepper, garlic salt, etc.) and i put it all in the blender and it becomes like a sand texture. I coat the chicken tenders in oil then dunk them in sand. Its the best breading
12:53 Yes! Kettle brand potato chips, Honey Dijon flavor, and they're probably my favorite chips.
Oil aerosol sprays are hard to find here in the UK. I put the chicken in for a few minutes and then add oil using a small silicone brush to get it as light and even as possible
With your nut mixture you can also do almond flour.
I've used ground Corn Chex to batter chicken, and it was REALLY good!
I cooked salmon for first time and it was awesome! Coated my hands with olive oil and held the filet to coat with a little oil and then the Panko. The salmon was crispy on the outside and soft and flaky inside.
Salmon is great in the air fryer isn't it? I dry my Salmon, salt and pepper and leave uncovered in the fridge for 6-8 hours. Just sprinkle a healthy amount of blackening and it is terrific.
I don't have an air fryer yet, but I'm wondering about blending the breading. For example, blending the potato chips and corn flakes for the breading to get the best of both types while offsetting the not-so-great results from using the breading individually.
I've made them with Ritz crackers before as well, pretty good.
Little tip for u, when u use airfryer flip your food on last 1-3 min then both sides have same crust and bottom are not that moist.
Thanks for your hard work !
Hey I think you enjoy what I do for Shnitzel for Shabbos.
With Equal parts honey mustard then egg or 2 salt paper mix and dunk the chicken in the batter.
Can brine for hour till overnight.
Then panko those guys, kids love it!
I personally like it with honey mustard sirracha dip
Try Doritios as breading, just smash them in the bag with your hands so you get alot of different texture. Its amazing !!!!
I always add salt and pepper in the egg mix or in the flour
My FAV breading for chicken and fish of all times, is pulverized pork rinds. Especially the spicy ones! I discovered this for myself (years ago) when I needed a zero carb breading. I was snacking on pork rinds and thought aha! 💡 I’ve not tried it in the air fryer (I have 2 Cosori’s, don’t judge) but now that I’ve seen this video I’m going to do it. Thank you for you expertise ☮️ & ❤️
How did it work out?
✌️ and 💕
The kitchen looks GREAT! I love the blue tile
Hey there guys ..i have a trick to cleaning the airfryer..evrryday when i use it ..wipe out with kitchen roll then wash with warm water and liquid 😅job done.good as new
Great vid! Corn flakes are king in my book. I usually don't even blend them, I just crushed them real hard with my hands and that gives the tendies that crust similar to the past one at the end, but the same could be achieved in the blender just pour one batch first and make it real usmooth and a second batch that doesn't get nearly as much blending and that should give you a great deal of variety and surface area on your crust.
i use the 3 part thick breading and i sometime skip the egg and replace it with the milk i was Marinating the chicken in it have to be double breading so the milk don't leak , and it comes sorta cooked in milk and so tender
