Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon butter (divided)
  • 1 pound (450g) chicken tenderloins (chicken fillets)
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced or crushed)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped - for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Add olive oil and melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan/skillet over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken tenders, season with paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Cook for 3 minutes on each side (season each side as you cook).

  4. 4

    Make room for the garlic, melt the remaining butter, and add the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds or until the garlic becomes fragrant.

  5. 5

    Season with Italian seasoning, and cook for one more minute.

  6. 6

    Add 2 tablespoons of water to the pan to deglaze it, and scrape off any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan (that's where all of the good flavor is).

  7. 7

    Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or basil leaves, and serve warm.
