Instructions

  1. Place chicken tenders in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag (like a ziploc). Pour in lemon juice, olive oil, lemon pepper, basil, oregano, and salt. Shake it a bit so all the chicken tenders get covered.
  2. Let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  3. Heat an outdoor gas grill over high heat. Sear the chicken for 2 minutes on each side and continue cooking until cooked through. This should take about 5 minutes or less. Chicken tenders cook quickly on the grill. Alternately, heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Sear the chicken tenders on each side for 2 minutes and continue cooking, covered for another 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Actual cooking time is dependent upon the thickness of the chicken.
