Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
Prepare the chicken: Lightly season the chicken tenderloins with salt.
Melt the butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. If using garlic (flexible carnivore version), sauté it for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Set aside.
Cook the chicken: Place chicken tenderloins in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
Coat with butter: Drizzle or brush the cooked chicken with the melted butter or garlic butter.
Serve: Enjoy hot, drizzled with any remaining butter.
Notes
Variations (Flexible Carnivore Diet):
Cheesy Chicken Tenderloins: Top with shredded cheese in the last 2 minutes of cooking for a cheesy twist.
Spicy Chicken Tenderloins: Add a pinch of paprika or chili powder to the butter for extra heat.
