Thyme Lemon Chicken Tenders
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 pound chicken breast tenders
  • olive oil-flavored cooking spray
Instructions
1
Combine the olive oil, minced garlic, and fragrant thyme leaves in a spacious bowl. Incorporate the grated lemon peel and freshly squeezed lemon juice into the mixture, blending well. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper liberally over the seasoned chicken tenders, coating them evenly. Mix the chicken with the olive oil and herb-infused mixture, allowing it to mingle for 5 minutes.

Next, spray a well-seasoned non-stick skillet with cooking spray and set it over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken tenders in the hot pan until they are nicely browned and cooked through, approximately 4 minutes on each side.
