Impress with lemon-dill mushroom chicken tenders, a simple yet impressive dish for family and guests.
Ingredients:
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1.5 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 0.66666668653488 cup fat free half-and-half
  • 0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions:
  • Combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Season both sides of chicken tenders with the mixture.
  • In a large skillet, warm olive oil over medium heat. Sear chicken tenders until golden brown on both sides, approximately 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil.
  • Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the skillet. Add the mushrooms and onion, cooking until the mushrooms begin to brown, approximately 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, around 30 seconds.
  • Combine half-and-half, chicken broth, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons dill, and cornstarch in a bowl. Pour the mixture into the skillet and cook until the sauce slightly thickens, approximately 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lower the heat, add the chicken and any juices to the pan. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear, about 4 to 5 minutes. Use a thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C). Finish by sprinkling a tablespoon of dill over the chicken and serve with lemon wedges.
