Description
Easy to make chicken tenders seasoned with Greek flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs chicken tenders
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Add the chicken tenders to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the marinade.
- Arrange the coated chicken tenders in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) and the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve immediately, with Greek yogurt for dipping if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute dried thyme for half of the oregano for a different flavor profile.
- For crispier tenders, you can briefly broil them for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
