Delicious served with a dollop of honey-mustard sauce on top. Simply mix about 1/2 cup of your favorite Dijon mustard with about a tbsp of honey.
Ingredients
Heartstone Farm all-natural turkey tenderloins
1 cup flour
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
Directions
Preheat your air fryer to 375°
Mix the flour with the salt and cayenne pepper in one bowl
Mix your panko and Parmesan in a second bowl
Beat your eggs in a third bowl
Pat dry your turkey tenderloins and dredge them in flour (shaking off excess), then egg, then press them firmly into the panko/Parmesan mix so they’re well coated
Place your tenderloins in the air fryer, ensuring they do not overlap (you may need to cook in 2 batches depending on the size of your air fryer)
Air-fry for 8 minutes each side or until the internal temperature of your turkey tenderloins is 165° (if you cut them into smaller pieces, they will cook quicker)
Remove from the air fryer and serve nice and hot when the panko coating is at its crunchiest
