CRACKER BARREL GRILLED CHICKEN TENDERS
One of our family favorites is the grilled chicken from the Cracker Barrel country restaurant. These marinated Chicken tenders are juicy and so yummy and come mighty close to the real thing! Excellent on the grill in the Spring and Summer although we grill them year round.

Tips:
- For the best results, use a charcoal grill or a gas grill with a smoker box. This will give the chicken a smoky flavor that is characteristic of grilled chicken at Cracker Barrel.
- If you don't have a smoker box, you can add a few wood chips to the coals or the gas grill's flavorizer bars. This will also give the chicken a smoky flavor.
- Be sure to preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the chicken. This will help to sear the outside of the chicken and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the chicken for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the chicken is cooked through and safe to eat.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the chicken more tender.
