If you mean a recipe where you start by throwing raw chicken tenderloins into a dish and cooking them, here’s a simple one-pan option:

Easy One-Pan Garlic Chicken Tenderloins

Ingredients

  • 1½ lbs raw chicken tenderloins
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp butter (optional)
  • Fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken
    • Pat chicken tenderloins dry.
    • Season with olive oil, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook
    • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add chicken and cook for about 4–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
    • Add butter and lemon juice during the last minute for extra flavor.
  3. Check doneness
    • Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part.
  4. Serve
    • Serve with rice, roasted vegetables, pasta, salad, or potatoes.

Tip: Chicken tenderloins cook quickly, so avoid overcooking them—removing them from heat as soon as they reach a safe temperature helps keep them juicy.
