Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using).
• Add the chicken tenders to the marinade and toss until they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
• Place the marinated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
• Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
• Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley for a pop of color.
• Serve hot and enjoy!
