turkey jerky

You hear about beef jerky and turkey jerky, but what about chicken jerky?! It tastes AMAZING, but is not as commonly found or made as its counterparts. Let&#039;s change that and make some chicken jerky!

Chicken Jerky

lb Chicken Breast

soy sauce

worcestershire sauce

honey

tbsp chili garlic sauce

tbsp liquid smoke (optional (hickory))

tsp curing salt (optional)

Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Pour into ziplock bag.

Trim all visible fat from the chicken breast and slice into ¼&quot; strips.

Add sliced chicken breast to the marinade in the ziplock bag and marinate for 6-24 hours in the refrigerator.

After the meat has finished marinating, remove from refrigerator and strain excess marinade in a colander.

Lay the strips on the dehydrator trays leaving space between the meat for air to circulate. Make sure the strips are not touching.

Dehydrate for 4-6 hours. Start checking the jerky if it&#039;s finished around the 3.5hr mark.

The jerky is finished when it bends and cracks, but does not break in half.

If you are unsure if your dehydrator will heat the strips to an internal temperature of 165°F, heat them in the oven either before or after dehydrating at 300°F for 10 minutes.

Pre or Post Heat Treatment

Looking for something different from the usual jerky made out of beef? Well, you found it! This easy to make turkey jerky has a fantastic salty and sweet flavor that will top any jerky you have tried up to this point. I know that&#039;s a bold statement, but it&#039;s most definitely THAT good.
