vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Grab about a pound of chicken tenders.

Season the chicken with salt, black pepper, and about a teaspoon of garlic powder, coating them nicely.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil.

Sear the chicken tenders until they're golden brown and crispy on the outside, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

In the same pan, pour in half a cup of heavy cream and turn the heat down to low.

Add about 1/4 cup of chopped sundried tomatoes to the cream and let it simmer gently until the sauce thickens.

Stir in three tablespoons of hot honey until it's completely melted into the sauce.

Add the seared chicken tenders back into the skillet, spooning the sauce over each tender.

Let it bubble together for another minute or two to finish cooking the chicken and soak up the flavors.

Garnish with fresh basil by tearing the leaves and scattering them over the top.
