    a floral plate full of grilled chicken tenders

    I got this recipe from an old neighbor when we lived outside of Pittsburgh over 10 years ago.  I loved it when she had us over for a cook-out and stumbled across it the other day.

    It was just as amazing as I remembered!  I actually “tripled” the recipe because I had 3 packages of chicken tenders so I would have lots of leftovers for lunches this week.

    INGREDIENTS for 1 lb of Chicken Tenders

    2 tablespoon of Olive Oil

    3 tablespoon of Soy Sauce

    3 tablespoon of Lime Juice

    3 Cloves of Garlic, minced

    1 tablespoon of Worchestershire Sauce

    DIRECTIONS

    Mix all of the above ingredients in a gallon size zip loc bag.

    Add chicken tenders to the marinade.

    Marinade for at least 2 hours (the longer the better for flavors)

    Grill and ENJOY!

      This looks so good and also so easy 🙂
      Thanks for the recipe. I’m not sure I would have thought to add quite so much garlic, so it will be something for me to try.
