1. In a large bowl, combine the ingredients for the marinade until smooth and allow to marinate chicken breast tenders in this mixture for 1 hour minimum in the refrigerator. When ready to cook, bring chicken at room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F (200°C).
2. Transfer chicken and a bit of sauce to a baking dish or roasting pan lined with parchment paper. Bake at 425°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, basting with marinade from time to time, until cooked through. Meanwhile reduce the remaining marinade a little bit in a saucepan on the stove while chicken is cooking, then drizzle the reduced sauce over cooked chicken and toss before serving. Garnish with cilantro if desired, and serve immediately.
Note: Serve with a crisp salad, roasted vegetables, or white rice. If you want more sauce, simply double the amounts for the marinade.
