Lemon chicken tenderloins

I write about Mexican, Japanese, and French cooking with a home cook’s eye and a traveler’s appetite. In Samara, I turn street stalls, family tables, and classic recipes into clear, practical stories.

Lemon chicken tenderloins

Lemon chicken tenderloins cook quickly but can dry out if left in a strong simmer. Brown them first, then finish gently in a small amount of broth and add lemon at the end.

This recipe makes two servings. Use thawed tenderloins of similar size and adjust cooking to their thickness rather than relying on a fixed number of minutes.

If the sauce reduces too much before chicken is cooked, add a splash of hot water. Butter adds milk ingredients; do not describe this version as dairy-free.
