Honey Garlic Thai Chili Glazed Grilled Chicken Tenders
These tenders are super easy to make and my wife could smell them grilling from 4 buildings away. There are only 3 ingredients unless you include garnishes as an ingredient. They are 2 pounds of raw chicken tenders, 1 cup honey and 1 cup of sambal, garlic chili sauce.
Ingredients:
Honey Garlic Thai Chili Tenders Ingredients
- ½ cup honey, cost about $0.70
- ½ cup sambal garlic chili sauce, cost about $1.00
Chili Garlic Sauce
- 2 pounds of raw chicken breast tenders, cost about $7.00
- *Optionally chopped cilantro for garnish
- *You will also want to have a brush and tongs for the grill if possible
Instructions:
- Poke holes in the tenders using a sharp knife or fork to help absorb the sauce
- Mix the honey and sambal together in a bowl or large measuring cup
Garlic Honey Glaze
- Put the chicken on the grill and grill at medium-high, glazing the side facing up
Adding Garlic Honey Glaze
- Flip frequently, glazing the side facing you each time for several times until it is coated
- Once you feel like they are about done you can just cut into one to make sure it is no longer pink in the middle. (*Make sure to allow time to kill any bacteria from using the same glaze you dipped the brush in after touching the raw chicken. )
- Garnish with cilantro and serve hot!
