Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
Season chicken with steak seasoning.
In a small saucepan heat orange marmalade to thin slightly. Set aside about 1/2 cup for basting and 1/2 cup for dressing.
Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees, basting frequently with the reserved portion of the dressing. Cool, and cut into strips. Discard basting sauce.
