European Recipe ∞ Chicken a la Creme

A simple, fast and delicious French recipe for chicken tenders in a rich cream sauce. You'll want to serve it with crusty French bread to sop up every drop!

Ingredients

• ¼ cup butter
• 1 ½ pounds chicken breast tenderloins or strips

Cooking Directions

1. 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.
