To Make the Blackened Chicken
- Add the chicken tenders to a large mixing bowl and sprinkle the blackened seasoning over the top. Toss the chicken until all the pieces are coated in the seasoning.
- Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, along with the olive oil. Add in the chicken tenders in batches and cook for several minutes on each side, until they reach an internal temperature of at least 165F using a meat thermometer.
- Serve immediately with the dipping sauce on the side.
