Number Of Ingredients 4

¼ cup butter
1 ½ pounds chicken breast tenderloins or strips
salt and pepper to taste
1 pint heavy cream

Steps:

  • Melt half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper, and saute them in butter until golden on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add the remaining butter, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 5 more minutes.
