      I really enjoyed these tenders! I seasoned my own way (Italian flavors) because I intended to chop up the chicken tenders for a spaghetti using butternut squash and zucchini noodles. The results were juicy tenders that melded well with the veggie pasta!

      This marinade is simple and tasty! I used chicken tenders from Costco. They only needed about half the time posted, so keep an eye on how they’re cooking.
