Heat the broiler, line a baking sheet with foil, and position a rack over the pan.
Remove the tenders from the breasts and thinly slice them. Slice breasts into 2-3 slices.
Put some olive oil in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and enough dried herbs to make a thick paste. Drag the breast slices and tenders through the herb paste and coat both sides.
