This is a great little salad with lots of meals. I first had it when my sweet mother-in-law made dinner for Doug and I when we were dating. We had roast and potatoes and this was a great accompaniment. She is such a wonderful hostess and I have learned many things from her.

BBQ Grilled Chicken Tenders

Chicken tenders
Grill seasoning
Honey bbq sauce

Sprinkle grill seasoning on chicken tenders, use your favorite.

Place tenders on hot grill for 4 to 5 minutes.

Remove from grill and place cooked side down on a plate covered in bbq sauce. Wiggle it around to cover the cooked side with the sauce.

Place chicken back on grill with the uncooked/un-sauced side down toward the heat.

After three or four minutes, remove again and dredge tenders through some fresh bbq sauce, being sure to cover all sides.

Place back on the grill for a couple minutes to caramelize the sauce a little.

Serve with extra sauce.
