  1. Combine the flour, lemon pepper seasoning, and salt in a shallow dish. Toss the chicken tenderloins with the lemon pepper flour mixture to coat.
  2. Heat a large skillet with 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Once hot, add a single layer of chicken tenders to the pan. Let cook 3-5 minutes without turning or stirring.
