  4. In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil over medium high heat. Add ha;f the tenders and cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden brown, another 3 minutes more. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the pan, and repeat the cooking process with the remaining tenders.
  5. Bake until the tenders are golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
