Air Fryer Honey Butter Garlic Chicken Tenders

In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

Make the Honey Butter Sauce:
Stir in honey, salt, pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Cook for about 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

Coat the Chicken Tenders:
Dip each chicken tender into the honey butter garlic sauce, ensuring it’s evenly coated.

Air Fry the Chicken Tenders:
Place the coated chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is crispy and cooked through.

Serve:
Serve the tenders hot with your favorite sides or dipping sauces. Enjoy!
