First try was magic:
- 2 x 3/4" tenderloin cutlets
- put 'em in a freezer bag and rubber mallet them down to 3/16"
- dry on paper towels and coat in flour
- dunk in scrambled egg
- coat with panko
- air fry at max temp (I went to 180 internal temp, which seemed a bit long, but was awesome)
- mushroom gravy (pan seared mushrooms, chicken stock, slaked flour, salt, pepper)
Second try:
- 165 internal temp worked great, no significant difference in texture.
- I think it was about 6 minutes in the air fryer, but I forgot to look at the timer at the end. Definitely a few minutes less than the 10 minutes I had set.
- Forgot to salt and pepper the gravy, which was a mistake - salt on top moved around as the mushrooms slid around in the gravy, resulting in salt hot-spots.
