Description

Tender and juicy chicken tenders marinated with vibrant Mediterranean flavors, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb Chicken tenders
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • Juice from 1 Fresh lemon
  • 2-3 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp Oregano, dried
  • 1 tsp Thyme, dried
  • Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  2. Add the chicken tenders, ensuring they are well-coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably up to 2 hours.
  3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  5. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Best served with tzatziki sauce or a fresh Greek salad. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
