How to make Keto Chicken Tenders
It's not too difficult to make chicken tenders. Chicken only needs to be sliced into tiny pieces. The chicken breast is first dipped in an egg and mayo combination before being coated in a low-carb coating of almond flour, parmesan cheese, herbs, and panko. For the finest flavor, be careful to completely coat your tenders.
After that, just select how to prepare them! You can bake or cook these low-carb chicken tenders in an air fryer. Each cooking technique has benefits, and all of the details are included in the recipe card that follows. When cooking in an oven, you can prepare a large quantity at once, which is convenient but takes more time.
In contrast, frying in an air fryer cooks food much more quickly and gives it that deliciously crunchy air fryer texture. The disadvantage is that while the air fryer is smaller, you do have to cook them in batches.
How Long to Bake Chicken Tenders
The chicken tenders must bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the oven at 425 degrees if you opt to utilize that method. The length of time your chicken will need to cook will depend on how thickly you cut it.
To ensure that my tenders are absolutely crunchy, I like to make them smaller and thinner. You will need to extend the cooking time by a few minutes if you produce thicker tenders.

How Long to Bake Chicken Tenders
Chicken tenders must cook in the oven at 425 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes if you opt to utilize that method. One thing to keep in mind is that how thickly you cut the chicken can affect the cooking time.
So that they are absolutely crunchy, I like to prepare smaller, thinner tenders. The cooking time must be increased by a few minutes if the tenders are thicker.
How to Reheat Low Carb Chicken Tenders
Keto chicken tenders are ideal for a speedy and tasty lunch because they will keep in the fridge for a few days! Start by preheating your oven to 450–500 degrees before reheating the chicken tenders. While waiting for the Chicken Tenders to come to room temperature, wrap your chicken in foil, lay it on a baking sheet, and leave it out of the refrigerator.
Place the Chicken Tenders in the preheated oven for 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how many pieces you have and how big they are, after the oven has heated up and they are no longer cool. When each piece has been heated all the way through, check frequently and remove from the oven.
Tips for Making Healthy Baked Chicken Tenders
These chicken tenders made with almond flour are low in carbohydrates, suitable for those with diabetes, and naturally gluten-free, making them a perfect option to accommodate a range of dietary demands during get-togethers or dinner parties! Here are some hints and techniques to make sure they always turn out perfectly:
- Don't pack your pan too tightly. Use a pan that is big enough to prevent the tenders from touching. The tenders will be absolutely crispy thanks to this.
- The tenders are equally breaded. Don't be reluctant to bread the chicken by hand. It can occasionally be challenging to make a firm breading using equipment. Ensure that the chicken is completely and evenly covered.
