Now if you haven’t made my Zesty Bread Seasoning yet, here is one more excuse to do so. If you just don’t want to make it, open up your cabinet and grab some of your favorite herbs, some kosher salt, and some garlic powder and just mix them up in whatever proportions feel good to you right now and go forward with the rest of this recipe. 🙂
- To make these baked chicken tenders, simply lay out your chicken tenders on a baking sheet.
- Brush both sides with olive oil
- Sprinkle both sides liberally with the seasoning blend.
- Bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink in the center. If your tenders are thinner, they’ll be done sooner, thicker ones will need more time.
Above you can see my new blue enamel baking sheet. It’s a great size because it is just a little smaller so two of them can fit side by side in the oven. They also have it in lavender. Click here to see them on Amazon.

Does the zesty seasoning work as well on BBQ grilled chicken, pork and beef?? If BBQ sauce is applied after the meat is grilled??Larry
I think it would do great!
Love your recipes.
How would this seasoning mixture be on fish?
I think it would work. I don’t eat seafood so I can’t say for certain but I would love to hear if you try it!!
