Chicken Jerky Treats For Dogs Recipes

CHICKEN JERKY FOR DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Slice the chicken into thin strips. You should end up with about 7 or 8 slices.
• Place chicken slices on a baking sheet and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours to remove moisture (cooking time will depend on thickness of chicken and whether chicken is refrigerated or warm from oven. I baked raw chicken until no longer pink then allowed it to cool enough to be handled before slicing into strips).
• Allow to cool.

CHICKEN JERKY TREATS FOR DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 170-180 degrees Fahrenheit or lowest temperature setting.
• Lightly grease a cookie sheet, using one with a slight edge because there will be water and juices from the chicken during the first hour of cooking.
• Slice chicken breasts in strips no more than ¼-inch thick.
• Place slices on a greased cookie sheet, leaving at least a ½-inch between slices.
• Bake for two hours. After two hours, check the slices and see if they're dry.
• Continue baking until slices appear very dried.
• When done, remove the treats from the oven and cool on a drying rack.
• When the treats are completely cool, bag in zippered bags or place in an airtight container and refrigerate.

THESE CHICKEN JERKY DOG TREATS HAVE A PEANUT BUTTER MARINADE - YOUR DOG WILL THANK YOU

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 170ºF.
• Remove any excess fat or bits of bone from the chicken breasts and pat dry.
• Mix together the peanut butter and soy sauce, which creates the marinade for the jerky. Stir and thin with up to 1 tablespoon of additional water to create a smooth paste. Coat the chicken with the peanut butter mixture, and place in the freezer for 1 hour. Slightly freezing the chicken makes it easier to thinly slice.
• Remove the chicken from the freezer, and cut as thinly as possible.
• Cover a sheet tray with parchment paper, and arrange the thin slices in a single layer. Place in the oven, set the timer for 2 hours, and hang out with your pup while the jerky cooks.
• Your jerky is ready! Once cool, cut with scissors into smaller bits, or leave as is for big mouthfuls of chewiness. Store in a sealable container, and your homemade chicken jerky is good for up to 30 days - if it lasts that long. And the jerky is totally human-tasty, too. It's low in fat and sodium while being a high-in-protein pick-me-up.
