Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Chicken tenderloins
  • 2 cups heirloom tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. ;In a small bowl, mix together the butter, oregano, basil, thyme, paprika and garlic powder. Heat the skillet over medium high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter (reserving the remaining 2 tablespoons) and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside. 
  • Increase the heat to high, add the remaining 2 tablespoon butter until melted. Add the tomatoes. Cook stirring until the tomatoes begin to char and burst, about 5 minutes. Crush the tomatoes with a spatula to let out all the juices. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the chicken back to the pan and cook until the chicken is cooked through. Top with freshly grated parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
