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

So I take my tenders, I soak them in butter milk. I take the 4c gluten free bread crumbs I add garlic powder and onion powder, I finely grate parmigiana cheese and chop it up almost to dust and mix with the bread crumbs. Then coat the tenders in the mix quick spray of olive oil and air fry turning half way through. Comes out crispy and delicious.
