Blackened Tenders are a bold and flavorful dish rooted in Cajun cuisine, originating from the vibrant culinary traditions of Louisiana. These chicken tenders are coated in a blend of spices, typically including paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and cayenne pepper, then seared at high heat to achieve a distinctive charred exterior while remaining juicy inside. High in protein, Blackened Tenders are a satisfying option for those looking to fuel their day. The spice blend offers antioxidant properties from ingredients like paprika and garlic. However, due to the searing process, they may be higher in sodium depending on the recipe or commercial preparation, so moderation is key. Pair them with fresh vegetables or a light side to balance the bold flavors for a wholesome meal.
