Chicken Teriyaki Jerky

Sweet, savory, and packed with umami, this teriyaki chicken jerky is a delicious twist on a classic snack, and it’s all made easily in the dehydrator. Tender strips of chicken are marinated in a rich teriyaki blend, then slowly dried to create a chewy, flavorful bite with just the right balance of sweetness and salt.  

Lighter than traditional beef jerky but just as satisfying, it’s perfect for on-the-go snacking, meal prep, or adding a protein boost to your day. Once you try it homemade, store-bought won’t compare.

How To Pick Chicken

To pick the best chicken breast for jerky, choose fresh, boneless, skinless breasts that are lean and low in fat, as fat can spoil quickly.
