Chicken Tenders in Creamy Garlic Sauce

Serve this easy supper dish over hot cooked fettuccine or linguine to help soak up the garlic-infused sauce.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 pounds chicken breast tenders
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 8 cloves garlic, cut into slivers
• 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup whole milk or cream
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed

Directions:

Sprinkle chicken tenders with salt and pepper. In a large skillet cook chicken tenders in olive oil over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Remove chicken from skillet; set aside. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, garlic, and onions to skillet. Cook and stir until onions are just beginning to brown. Sprinkle flour over onion mixture; stir to moisten all of the flour. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Add chicken broth, stirring constantly. Bring just to a boil; stir in milk and thyme. Return chicken tenders to skillet. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until sauce is thickened and chicken is heated through.

Number of Servings: 4-5
