Forget going to Cracker Barrel. This copycat recipe hits the spot! 5 stars!

In a bowl, whisk together the Italian dressing, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken tenderloins in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place the tenderloins in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice grilled appearance.
Remove from the air fryer and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Variations & Tips

For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some red pepper flakes to the marinade. If you prefer a more citrusy flavor, increase the lime juice and add some lime zest. You can also try using different types of dressings, like a balsamic vinaigrette, for a unique twist. For meal prep, marinate the chicken the night before and store it in the fridge, so it’s ready to cook when you get home from work.
