Add chicken tenders, smoked paprika, salt and pepper to a large bowl, then mix until chicken is coated. In a medium bowl, beat your eggs together. Using your hands, crush cornflakes into a large mixing bowl, so you have a mixture of small and large cornflakes.
Dip each chicken tender in egg, then cornflakes - press cornflakes into chicken tenders until coated all over. Transfer to a lined baking tray, spray with low calorie cooking spray, then bake for 15-20 mins, until golden and crispy.
For the Creamy Peri Peri sauce, heat olive oil in a non-stick pan, then sauté garlic for 1-2 mins before adding peri peri sauce. Bring sauce to a simmer, then stir in mascarpone until combined.
Add peri peri seasoning, smoked paprika red wine vinegar and lemon juice, stir to combine and simmer for 3-4 mins, until reduced, then add boiling water to loosen sauce and dried parsley. Simmer until chicken tenders are baked.
