Lemon Pepper Chicken Tenders Recipes

Steps:

• Mix bread crumbs, lemon-pepper seasoning, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and salt together in a shallow dish.
• Pat chicken pieces dry with paper towels, dip in beaten eggs, and dredge through bread crumb mixture.
• Heat enough oil to thickly coat the bottom of a frying pan over medium heat. Fry chicken until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Place asparagus into mixing bowl and thoroughly coat with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic.
• Tear off a sheet of parchment paper, large enough to fold into a packet.
• Place asparagus and chicken breast on top of parchment paper. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and lemon juice. Garnish with 2-3 lemon slices.
• Fold the edges of the parchment paper widthwise 2-3 times then twist the ends until fully closed.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the grill over medium high heat.
• In a shallow dish, combine lemon zest and juice with extra-virgin olive oil. Reserve 1/4 of the marinade.
• Coat chicken tenders in marinade and season generously on both sides with coarse black pepper. Season chicken tenders lightly with salt.
• Cook tenders in 2 or 3 batches, a single layer, in a very hot grill.
• Chicken tenders will cook 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving platter and brush with the reserved marinade.

Steps:

• For the lemon-pepper "chicken": Place the tofu on a layer of paper towels on a cutting board. Top with more paper towels. Place a pot over the top and fill with heavy cans to press the excess liquid from the tofu. Let stand for 30 minutes.
• Cut the tofu into strips. Soak the strips in the broth in a bowl for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the ranch dip: Stir together the mayonnaise, almond milk, parsley, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder and dill in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the lemon-pepper "chicken": Pour enough oil to reach halfway up the sides of a cast-iron skillet. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Make the "buttermilk" by stirring together the almond milk and vinegar in a shallow dish. Let stand, whisking occasionally, for 10 minutes to develop a tangy flavor. Combine the flour, cornstarch, lemon-pepper seasoning and salt and pepper to taste in a separate shallow dish.
• Dip the tofu strips in the "buttermilk," then dredge in the flour mixture. Fry, in batches, turning occasionally, 7 to 8 minutes. Drain on a wire rack and sprinkle with additional lemon-pepper seasoning while still hot. Serve hot with the ranch dip.

Steps:

• In a large, shallow bowl, whisk together lemon juice, garlic, shallots, oregano, rosemary, bay leaf, lemon zest, pepper and oil.
• Add chicken, turning it to coat with marinade, and let it marinate, skin side up, covered and chilled, for 3 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Put rack in middle position of oven.
• Arrange chicken, skin side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Season lightly with salt.
• Roast for 35-45 minutes. Halfway through, sprinkle on pepper and lemon zest.
• This is also great grilled on the bbq.
