Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
- ½ tsp chili powder or to taste
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt to taste
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp butter divided
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ⅓ cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
- 12 ounces zucchini noodles
- fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix Italian seasoning, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Season both sides of the chicken tenders generously with the spice mixture.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Once the butter is melted and the skillet is hot, add the seasoned chicken tenders. Sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to combine it with the garlic and butter. Add the Parmesan cheese, along with a pinch of salt and pepper, stirring until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce becomes smooth and thick. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce until they are evenly coated. Cook for 2-3 minutes, just until the noodles are tender but still slightly crunchy.
- Return the cooked chicken tenders to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce and noodles. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat the chicken through and allow the flavors to meld.
- Once everything is well combined and heated through, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
