I'm always, always looking for easy and flavorful protein options. I stumbled upon this recipe on Facebook one day and took a quick screen capture. I'm so glad I did.

Ingredients

1 family size package of chicken tenders
1 Tablespoon olive oil
3 Tablespoons salted butter
1 Tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Clean and cut chicken tenders into bite size pieces. For this recipe, I cut each tender into thirds.

Put chicken pieces into a large bowl. Add Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

In a large skillet, heat olive olive over medium heat. Add seasoned chicken and cook until golden/fully cooked through. Add butter and minced garlic to skillet. Stir for another minute or two until garlic is fragrant.

Ideas

This paired really well with Creamy Parmesan & Spinach Penne and a salad.

This is a great chicken option if you are meal prepping lunches for the week.
