Notes
- You can marinate chicken up to 2 days ahead of time. Store in an airtight container.
- You can grill the chicken in the oven, indoor grill, or outdoor grill. For the best flavor, I recommend grilling outdoor for the char flavor.
- Want to make this spicier? Add some cayenne pepper, hot sauce, or red chili flakes to the chicken marinade.
- Be sure the grill is preheated so the chicken doesn’t stick.
- I always use a thermometer to make sure the chicken tenders are cooked perfectly.
