Irresistible Smoky Chicken Jerky: The Ultimate Recipe!

1. Cut chicken with the grain into very thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, while still mostly frozen.

2. Whisk soy sauce, teriyaki marinade, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, lemon juice, smoked salt, ginger, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken strips, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight.

3. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 180 degrees F (80 degrees C). Spray a wire rack with cooking spray; place the rack onto a rimmed baking sheet.

4. Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Place chicken on the prepared rack as close together as possible without touching. Discard remaining marinade.

5. Bake in the preheated oven, flipping halfway through, until chicken is uniformly dark orange in color and dry inside when cut in half, 4 to 5 hours.
