Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time20 minutes
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 lb chicken tenders
  • 1/4 cup butter divided
  • 2 cups heavy cream

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the salt, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
  • Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken tenders.
  • Heat a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and melt half of the butter (about 2 tablespoons).
  • Add the seasoned chicken tenders to the skillet and cook until cooked through and browned, about 8 minutes, turning as needed.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low, pour in the heavy cream and add the remaining butter, stirring to combine.
  • Simmer the sauce until it thickens, about 5–7 minutes, spooning sauce over the chicken.
  • Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over it, optionally over pasta or mashed potatoes.

Equipment

  • 12-inch non-stick skillet

Notes

  • Use room-temperature butter for easier melting.
  • Adjust cayenne to control heat level.
  • Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
