This is NOT jerky. This is twice cooked chicken breast. Yes, Kaylynn, it does NOT have to be cooked first if you are really making Jerky. 1/8" slices, raw, @ 200ºF for 2 hours should do it.

1st, really appreciate the recipe... my ? is how long will it keep and how should it be stored once made. My dog is little and doesn't eat that much daily.

Hi! This is Elise McMahon and in this video series we are talking about how to make your own dog food. If you would like to find out more about my services, you can visit my website at canineheadstart.com. So in this short clip, we are going to be talking about how to make your own chicken strips. I am starting off here with a piece of chicken breast. This is the piece of chicken breast that I have actually already fried up, so you can just fry up a piece of chicken breast in your frying pan and just to let you know that there are some places that you can actually get bulk orders of things like chicken breast so you could get 40 lbs. of it and you will be spending a low less money than if you just go to the supermarket and buy it the way you would buy it for say a small family. So you can look into that, but we are going to be using chicken breast here. What I am going to do is I am going to cut off thin slices and it has already been cooked, which makes it easier for me to cut and I am cutting off very thin slices of the chicken breast. Lot of times people go to the store and buy chicken breast jerky. What we are doing here is showing how you can make it yourself although chicken breasts might be somewhat expensive. It is certainly cheaper to buy the chicken breast yourself and make the jerky yourself. What you can do with this once we have got it made, is you can use it as a treat training treat, as a chew treat or cut up into small pieces and sprinkle it on the dog’s food. So what I am doing now is I am laying the chicken breast out on a small pan. I am laying it flat, it is fairly dry already as you can see and lay the pieces very flat like this. Those extra bits we don’t have to do anything with and then what I am going to do is I am going to put this in the toaster oven. I am going to cook it at a very low heat at about a 150 for about 20 minutes. If you cook it on too high a heat, you are basically just going to be burning the chicken; remember it is cut very thin, so it does not take a lot to cook it. What we are trying to do is to dry it out. So we are going to put it on a very low heat at about 150 and we are going to cook it for about 30 minutes and you can see we have got the thin slices. They are nice and crispy and once they have cooled, they are a little bit warm right now. Once they are cooled, we can use these as a treats or chews for the dog.
