Ditch the boring chicken recipes and serve your family these quick and easy chicken tenders cooked in a rich, lemony sauce.

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 (16 ounce) package boneless, skinless chicken tenders
4 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground paprika
1/3 cup lemon juice

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray an 8x11-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
2 Place chicken tenders in a single layer in the prepared pan. Spread butter on the tenders, then evenly sprinkle with salt and paprika. Drizzle with lemon juice.
3 Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
