You can use these flavor-packed chicken tenders as a standalone entrée with some vegetable sides, chop them and toss onto a grain bowl or a bed of baked spaghetti squash, or tuck them into a sandwich wrap. The zesty lemon flavor comes through clearly, and the toasted garlic gives the chicken a super-savory backbone.

Ingredients

Lemon zest

1 Tbsp

Fresh lemon juice

1½ Tbsp

Kosher salt

¾ tsp

Black pepper

½ tsp

Garlic

3 clove(s), minced

Extra virgin olive oil

1½ Tbsp, divided

Uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast tenderloin

1 pound(s)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, garlic, and 1 tbsp oil. Add the chicken and toss well to coat.
  2. Heat the remaining ½ tbsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add the chicken mixture, scraping any excess garlic into the pan. Cook, turning the chicken occasionally, until done, about 10 minutes.
  3. Serving size: about 3 oz chicken
