Chicken Lazone

This is one of my family’s absolute favourite meals. I get requests to make this at least once a week. It is fast, easy, and delicious! We usually serve it over pasta with a big salad on the side, but you can pair it with mashed potatoes (or cauliflower!). I’ve not tried it, but I bet it would work well with rice too. The chili powder and the cayenne pepper give it a little kick that you can adjust, depending on how hot you want it to be.

Ingredients

• ½ tsp salt
• 1½ tsp chili powder
• 1½ tsp onion powder
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
• 2 lb chicken tenders
• ¼ cup butter, divided
• 2 cups heavy cream

Directions

1. Combine salt, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle over both sides of chicken tenders.
2. In large sauté pan, melt half of the butter over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken tenders until done, about 8 minutes.
3. Pour the cream and remaining butter into the skillet. Lower heat and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Serve chicken and sauce over pasta or mashed potatoes, if desired.
