Prepare the Pesto: Blend fresh cilantro, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and olive oil in a blender until combined and slightly textured. Season with salt and pepper.

Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken tenders in a bowl, pour half of the pesto over them, toss to coat, and marinate for 10-15 minutes.

Heat the Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil until shimmering.

Cook the Chicken Tenders: Add marinated chicken tenders to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve and Garnish: Remove from skillet, serve on a plate, drizzle with remaining pesto, and garnish with cilantro and lemon wedges.

Pair Them Perfectly: Serve with a fresh salad, garlic-roasted potatoes, or fluffy quinoa.
