Lemon Thyme Chicken Tenders

Chicken

Sautéed chicken tenders get a flavor boost from a delicious marinade of fresh lemon juice, zest, and thyme. Great as a main course or as a salad topper!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
1 tablespoon lemon zest
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 pound chicken breast tenders
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil-flavored cooking spray

Description

Combine oil, garlic, thyme, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Toss chicken in oil mixture. Set aside to marinate, about 5 minutes.
Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Cook chicken tenders until lightly brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
