Coating the Chicken:
- In a shallow dish, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
- Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, then dredge them in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating to the chicken.
Air Frying the Chicken:
- Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Place the coated chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not touching each other.
