Set the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) as per the manufacturer’s instructions, allowing it to preheat thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, place the chicken breast tenders. Drizzle with olive oil, then add garlic powder, paprika, salt, parsley flakes, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure each tender is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture. Sprinkle in the grated Parmesan cheese and toss until it thoroughly adheres to the chicken.
Thread each chicken tender onto a skewer, arranging the skewers in the air fryer basket in a single layer. The skewers may be close together, but they should not overlap for optimal cooking.
Air fry for 7 minutes. Then, turn the skewers over and continue cooking until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and juices run clear, approximately 3 additional minutes. For accuracy, use an instant-read thermometer to confirm the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
