Effortlessly prepare flavorful blackened chicken strips on a sheet pan for a crowd-pleasing dish with endless seasoning possibilities.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder, or to taste
  • 1.5 teaspoons paprika
  • 1.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon cumin
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.25 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1.5 pounds chicken tenderloins
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch sheet pan with aluminum foil, then drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the foil and spread it evenly with your fingertips.
  • Mix together chili powder, paprika, smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, oregano, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne in a bowl until well blended.
  • Gently pat dry the chicken tenders and coat them with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Sprinkle 1/2 of the spice mixture over the chicken. Arrange the tenders, seasoned side down, in a single layer on the sheet pan.
  • Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the tenders and generously sprinkle the remaining spice mixture on top.
  • Bake the chicken tenders in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Then, flip the tenders, move the oven rack to the broil position, and broil for about 3 minutes until they are cooked through and slightly charred. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) using an instant-read thermometer.
