Preheat air fryer or oven to 400℉ (200℃) and for oven directions generously grease or oil a large baking sheet.
In a large bowl, mix almond flour, parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.
In a shallow mixing bowl, beat the egg and heavy cream.
Dredge a chicken tender in the egg mixture. Then coat in the almond flour breading until coated on all sides. Place the tenders in the air fryer basket (might need to work in batches if air fryer basket is small) or on the air fryer sheet, or a prepared baking sheet for oven directions. Repeat the process on all chicken tenders.
Spray olive oil spray over the chicken tenders.
Air Fryer Directions:
Air fry at 400℉ (200℃) for 6 to 8 minutes, then turn over and cook for another 6 to 8 minutes until chicken tenders are crisp and done in the center.
Oven Directions:
Bake at 400℉ (200℃) for 8 minutes and turn chicken tender over and bake for another 8 to 10 minutes or until tenders are crisp and done in the center.
Remove from fryer or oven and serve.
