    Preheat the Air Fryer Grill:

    • Preheat your revolutionary air fryer grill to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.

    Prepare the Breading Station:

    • In a shallow bowl, mix together breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

    Coat the Chicken:

    • Dip each chicken tender into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.

    Air Fry:

    • Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 12 minutes, flipping the tenders halfway through the cooking time.
    • Spray the tops of the tenders lightly with cooking spray to help them crisp up.

    Check for Doneness:

    • The chicken tenders should be golden brown and crispy on the outside, with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

    Serve:

    • Once done, remove the crispy chicken tenders from the air fryer grill.
