Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless chicken breast tenderloins
  • 1 cup pickle juice
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream divided
  • 2-3 oz pork rinds crushed into crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • Salt and pepper taste

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup mayonaisse
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Mustard (yellow will give you the darker orange color, but we prefer dijon for taste)
  • 2 tbsp Sugar free BBQ sauce
  • 2 tbsp Sugar free honey
  • 2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • First, whisk ¼ cup of the heavy whipping cream and all of the pickle juice together.
  • Then, coat the chicken tenders in this wet mixture. Marinate the tenders in it for about an hour, turning the tenders halfway through.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees.
  • Place the egg and the other ¼ cup of heavy whipping cream into a shallow bowl, and whisk to combine well.
  • Remove the chicken tenders from the pickle juice mixture, and dip them into the egg and heavy whipping cream mixture.
  • Add the pork rind crumbs as well as salt and pepper to taste in an even layer on a plate.
  • Remove the chicken tenders from the pickle juice mixture, and dip them into the egg and heavy whipping cream mixture.
  • Coat the outside of the tenders in the pork rind crumbs.
  • Place the pork-rind-crusted chicken strips into the air fryer and bake them for 15-20 minutes until crispy. That’s it! These taste amazing with the copycat Chick-Fil-A Sauce.

Sauce

  • Place all of the ingredients for the sauce into a small bowl, and whisk to combine well.
  • Put the sauce into the fridge in a covered container to chill for one hour before serving.
