These Oven-Baked Chicken Tenderloins are made in the oven, with no crispy coating and a deliciously subtle teriyaki flavor. They go with just about anything you can dream up and are perfect for meal prep.
Remove the tendon from the tenderloin by grabbing it with a paper towel and placing it between the tines of a fork and pulling down (see step by step images).
Place the tenderloins in a sealable container and add the soy sauce, olive oil, spicy brown mustard, garlic powder and ground ginger. Put the lid on and shake so everything is evenly covered. Let set overnight OR just be sure to let it marinate while you preheat the oven.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray or nonstick spray. Remove the tenderloins from the marinade dish and add them to the prepared baking sheet in a even layer.
Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15-17 minutes or until cooked through and no longer pink. Internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit with a meat thermometer for safety.
Remove and enjoy.
