This easy recipe is perfect for reduced sodium meals.

Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2-3 teaspoons Culinary Genie Salt-Free Blackened Seasoning Blend

Cut chicken breasts into strips. Using a fork, pierce chicken all over. Place in a bowl.
Sprinkle chicken with desired amount of Culinary Genie Salt-Free Blackened Seasoning Blend. Toss to coat. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt, if desired. Toss to coat well.
Let stand 10-15 minutes. Preheat air fryer to 390°F.
Place tenders in air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry until internal temperature reaches 165°F on an instant-read food thermometer, turning over halfway through, about 8-10 minutes.
