You don’t have to be a surgeon to expertly remove a chicken tendon from your cutlet — you just need a fork and a little bit of elbow grease.
A woman on TikTok has gone viral with her chicken-prepping “hack” that involves pulling out the tendon from a chicken breast with one deft movement.
Explaining the process as she goes, the woman threads the end of the tendon between the middle tines of a fork. She then grabs the protruding tab with a paper towel while pushing down on the meat with the fork, thus pulling the tendon out of the tenderloin.
