Step 1

Preheat the oven to 140 degrees. Heat a grill to hot (or heat a nonstick skillet until very hot).
Put the tenders in a bowl, sprinkle with the salt and oil, and stir until well coated.
Arrange the chicken tenders on the hot grill (or in the hot skillet) and cook for about 1 1/2 minutes.

Transfer to a platter and keep warm in the oven while you prepare the sauce.
For the chimichurri sauce, mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Serve the chicken coated with the sauce.
