5. Add 2 tablespoons of water to the griddle and cover it.

6. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or basil leaves, and serve warm.

Notes:

Don’t overcook the chicken tenders, they cook so quickly and if they’re overcooked they can turn out stringy, dry, and tough. They are ready when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
To create a flavorful sauce, make sure to deglaze the pan with a splash of water as that’s where the flavor is.
