Ingredients You’ll Need

You won’t believe the amazing flavor you get from just 4 simple ingredients! Short and sweet is best! You can find measurements for each ingredient in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Italian Dressing: Italian dressing adds the best flavor to these chicken tenders! Honey: Gives your marinade a thick texture and tasty sweetness.Lime Juice: Adds a pop of zesty flavor.Chicken Tenders: These can also be sold as ‘chicken tenderloins.’ You’ll want them to be uncooked and ready to marinate. If you can’t find packaged chicken tenders, you can also use boneless chicken breasts and cut them lengthwise, so they’re a similar shape.

How to Make Grilled Chicken Tenders

Even if you’re new to grilling, these chicken tenders with honey lime sauce are something you can make with flying colors! You’ll need a little bit of time to let them marinate, but they cook up in just a few minutes! It’s the perfect quick and easy summer meal.

Use a Thermometer: This step is super important so that your chicken doesn’t dry out on the grill. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of your chicken tenders. You can take them off the grill when the internal temperatures reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit. If you cook them any more than that, they may dry out.Let Rest: The key to juicy grilled chicken is letting it rest for a minute or two after you pull it off the grill. This allows all of the tasty juices to reabsorb, giving you chicken tenders that will melt in your mouth! If you cut into them too soon after grilling, those juices may be released instead of absorbing back into the meat.Serve With: These grilled chicken tenders are tasty on their own but great for serving over rice and adding to green salads, too! I always chop up my leftovers and add them to salads like this cilantro lime chicken salad and chili lime chicken salad. The flavor of the chicken complements them perfectly! The size of these tenders is also perfect for adding to grilled kebabs alongside tasty veggies.

In the Refrigerator: Store leftover grilled chicken tenders in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
