Ingredients

3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
8 large (blank)s chicken tenders
nonstick cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
2 medium tomatoes, crushed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup red wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch
¼ cup seasoned bread crumbs, or as needed
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

Whisk garlic, lime juice, red pepper flakes, oil, salt and pepper together together in a bowl for the marinade and coat the chicken pieces thoroughly. Set aside for 30 to 40 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Coat a baking dish with nonstick spray.
Heat oil for sauce in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is golden brown and soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms and saute until soft, about 1 minute.
Add tomatoes, cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Pout in chicken broth and red wine and cook on high heat until red wine reduces. To thicken the sauce, add cornstarch and whisk quickly so there are no lumps. Cook until the sauce is medium thick.
Arrange the chicken pieces in the prepared baking dish in one single layer. Pour sauce over the chicken and spread evenly. Top with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until bread crumbs are brown and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 25 to 30 minutes.
