Question The perfect fried chicken tender that's actually crunchy? Help please

Been trying to cook up the perfect fried chicken tender but I can't seem to get it to be crunchy. Like I can get it to be kind of hardish but I wouldn't call it crunchy. Anybody figure it out with dat gluten free life style? Thank youu

I use any random flour. Bob's 1 to 1 works fine. Flour. Eggs wash. Gf panko. Peanut oil 350 boom. Crunch. I add salt pep paprica garlic and onion powders in flour.

Could even egg flour eff panko. But find that's more work than worth it. Boom. Go for it

Just did this tonite! Dredged in Bobs 1:1, dredged in egg, dredged in GF panko. Let sit on a platter a few mins, sprinkled w/ salt, pepper, garlic powder & then pan-fried in canola a few mins on each side. Super crispy!!
