Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken tenders
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp paprika

  2. Add chicken tenders to the bowl and coat them evenly with the honey garlic mixture.

  7. Remove from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
