Great Tasting Chicken Tenders On The George Foreman!
This is an easy to grill chicken tender’s recipe that is perfect for a delicious quick meal or as a snack. It’s easy to cook on a George Foreman Grill. You can use boneless skinless chicken breast tenderloins that are available at most grocery stores.
If they are not available you can substitute regular boneless skinless chicken breasts and gut them into strips of approximately 1 inch wide.
These tenders taste great in salads, wraps, or any other way you like to eat them.
If starting with whole breasts, use a meat mallet and pound to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. They will grill much better that way.
