Grilled Italian Chicken Tenders Recipe – THE BEST grilled chicken! The chicken is marinated in olive oil, balsamic, garlic, onion, pepper and Italian seasonings. Grill or pan sear for the best chicken ever! We like to serve these over fettuccine Alfredo or marinara and pasta.

Pin This RecipeThis recipe came from my Mom. She made these chicken tenders and couldn’t wait to share the recipe with us. The marinade is very simple, and you probably have everything on hand to make them tonight. I let the chicken marinate overnight because that is easier for me. I am always running late in the mornings and just don’t have the time to prep for dinner.
The chicken was wonderful. It smelled out of this world while it was grilling. We couldn’t wait to eat it. We are so glad that “Mama Hen” shared this recipe with us!

ThIs is Delicious and works great as the chicken to go on Alfredo sauce. We served this at my sons wedding and had tons of recipe requests. So yummy!!!
Oh, I'm all over these. I bet they would be great on sub rolls with lettuce, tomato, onion and a little creamy Italian dressing. Thanks for the post.
Just learning how to cook and this looks super easy. Don't have an outdoor grill, but we have a George Foreman – hoping they turn out just as tasty!
Britt – bake them at 450 for about 15 minutes
If you don't have a grill & want to use the oven what is a good time & temperature setting?

The Crust of the Grilled Chicken is simply mouth watering. Extremely palatable. Smoked dishes always have a unique taste that is simply yummy. Enjoy Your recipe. Cheers !
