Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken tenderloins
- Olive oil
- Tony Chachere’s seasoning
- 1 red onion, diced
- 8 oz mushrooms
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1.5 cups chopped kale
- ¼ cup white cooking wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
*If you don’t have Tony Chachere’s seasoning, you use another type of cajun seasoning or make your own blend with salt, red pepper, black pepper, chili powder, and garlic powder.
Directions
- Generously season the chicken tenderloins with olive oil and Tony Chachere’s (or your own blend—see note above).
- Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and cook the chicken tenderloins for 3–4 minutes on each side. Remove cooked tenderloins from the pan and set aside.
- Add the diced onion and mushrooms to the skillet and season with more Tony’s (or your own blend). When the vegetables are almost fully cooked, add the minced garlic and kale and stir.
- Add the white cooking wine to the pan and bring to a simmer.
- Add the heavy cream, chicken, and chicken juices to the pan and bring to a simmer.
- Let simmer for 3–4 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
