**Easy With Boneless Chicken Tenders**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken tenders
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. Begin by preparing the marinade. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, honey, and soy sauce. Mix well to ensure all the flavors are well incorporated.
2. Place the chicken tenders in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each tender is coated evenly. Seal the bag (if using) or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for maximum flavor.
3. When you’re ready to cook, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
4. Remove the chicken tenders from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking.
5. Bake the chicken tenders in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are cooked through and the juices run clear. You can also finish them under the broiler for an extra crispiness for the last 2-3 minutes.
6. Once the chicken tenders are cooked to perfection, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful bite.
7. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, for a pop of color and a hint of freshness. Serve your “Easy With Boneless Chicken Tenders” hot alongside your favorite side dishes or over a bed of fluffy rice or crispy salad.
