Air Fryer Dorito Crumb Tenders

By DoritosPublished on 17 June 2026Crunchy coated chicken tenders are a surefire winner every time, but we’ve gone big and switch up traditional breadcrumb coating for Doritos. We’ve used Cool Original for our crust but if you fancy something spicy give it a go with Flamin’ Hot, and don’t forget the salsa.
