You don’t need to marinate Chicken Tenderloins for many hours. Today I marinated for only 15 minutes. And as you know, Chicken Tenderloins can be cooked very quickly. This is a quick and easy, and healthy Chicken dish. Use your favourite Herbs and serve with a refreshing salad.

Ingredients

500 to 600g Chicken Tenderloins *tendon removed if you choose to do so
Salt & Pepper
Finely chopped Parsley

Marinade
1-2 cloves Garlic *grated
Zest of 1 Lemon *finely grated
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice

Method
  1. Combine all the Marinade ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add Chicken Tenderloins, mix to combine well, then marinate for 15 to 30 minutes.
  2. Drain the Chicken Tenderloins and discard the marinade.
  3. Heat a grill pan OR frying pan over medium high heat, lightly oil it if necessary, and cook Chicken Tenderloins until both sides are nicely browned and cooked through. It won’t take very long.
