Instructions
Creating these delicious Greek Chicken Tenders is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken tenders in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
3. Preheat the Grill or Oven: If using a grill, preheat to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).
4. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken tenders from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Grill the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, or bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
5. Rest the Tenders: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
6. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the tenders before serving.
Following these steps will ensure you create mouthwatering Greek Chicken Tenders that are perfect for any occasion.
