How to cook deliciously - Air-Fryer Pecan Chicken Sliders

1. Stage

Preheat air fryer to 375°. Flatten chicken to 1/2-in. thickness; cut each thigh in half. Place pecans in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, whisk together egg, milk, salt, pepper and pepper sauce. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then coat with pecans. In batches, arrange chicken in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket; spritz with cooking spray. Cook until golden brown, turning once, 8-10 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine jam ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thick, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat; crush berries to desired consistency. For slaw, in a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, sugar and lime juice. To assemble, spoon 1 heaping tablespoon jam onto bottom of each roll. Layer with hot chicken and slaw; replace tops.
