Ingredients
- 1 tsp cooking spray or rub with butter
- 1 lb chicken tenders
- 1 tsp olive oil or vegetable oil or butter
- 1 tsp salt divided
- 1/2 tsp pepper divided
- 1 garlic powder divided
- 1 tsp paprika divided
Instructions
- First, preheat the broiler to high heat.
- Drizzle olive oil on chicken tenders. Then sprinkle them with seasonings. Rub in to coat evenly.
- Flip the chicken tenders over and add more seasonings. Rub in once again.
- Lay out seasoned chicken tenders on the baking sheet in a single layer, with plenty of space between each one.
- Broil the chicken on the top shelf of the oven for 7 minutes.
- Pull the baking sheet out of the oven and check that chicken is cooked through. The thickest part of the tenders should read at least 165 degrees on a meat thermometer. If not, place the chicken back in the oven for a minute or two until it is done. Be sure to keep an eye on the oven, as the chicken might overcook and become tough.
- Once the chicken tenders are done, use tongs to move them to a serving plate.
Notes
- For easy clean-up, lay aluminum foil on the baking sheet. Spray it with nonstick spray or rub with butter so the chicken doesn't stick to it.
- Can use olive oil, vegetable oil, or even butter to top the chicken
- Choose any seasonings you like on chicken
- No need to flip the chicken during the broiling process, both sides will brown up evenly in the oven
