Almost Cracker Barrel Recipe - Grilled Chicken Tenderloins

Cracker Barrel Copycat Ingredients

Makes 2 servings

  • 1 pound chicken breast tenders
  • 1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (Fresh is best)

Mix up everything but the chicken. Pour over the chicken and marinate for at least one hour. Then cook the chicken breast tenders on the grill or in a non-stick pan until golden brown and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook or they will become dry.

This simple Cracker Barrel chicken recipe is my favorite menu item at Cracker Barrel. I could never figure out the exact mix of ingredients. I am delighted to find out that this copycat recipe is very easy to make.

The original restaurant recipe clone instructions say to drain the seasonings from the Italian dressing. But I'm lazy and I actually like the Cracker Barrel Chicken tenderloins recipe better with the spices. It's your choice. But leaving out the spices does make it taste identical to the original Cracker Barrel recipe.

Chauncey Reese,

Thanks for stopping by. I have a lot of webpages like this one that have recipes that are copycats of different restaurants. I am not connected in any way with Cracker Barrel Old Country Store.

I haven't posted all of the copycat recipes that I have. I will look through my recipe collection and see if I can find Broccoli Cheddar Chicken. If not, I will try to find it online.

I found this while looking around the intert00bs... I hope it helps.

This cracker barrel broccoli chicken recipe is simple.Layer chicken breasts in 9x12 panTop the chicken with cooked broccoli pieces (defrosted frozen broccoli is what cracker barrel uses).Top the broccoli with crumbled Ritz crackers (do not crumble the Ritz cracker much).Put in oven and bake 350 degrees around 1 hour or until chicken is done.Top with cheese sauce.I do not have the cheese sauce recipe but any good cheddar cheese sauce will do.Please let me know how this comes out. I am making it today.

I've not tried it yet.. so I'm not sure if it is the real deal, but it doesn't look like it's too far off the mark if at all.

Anyone have recipe for Cracker Barrel's Chicken Salad on Sour Dough Bread? I'd especially like ingredients for salad dressing used for this sandwich.

I've already found their chicken salad over lettuce with cheese and tomato, but it seems to have more ingredients than the sandwich had. Their Chicken Salad on Sour Dough Bread seemed simpler.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Mary Nicastro, for the pancakes, we use a premade mix. You can buy it in the retail shop half of the restaurant.

HeathenAngel, that's pretty much what is done for the Wed night DDF Broccoli Cheddar chicken. Just add butter over the crackers. The sauce is also premade, we just boil it in it's bag, so I can't give you any hints there.
