Delicious Bacon Wrapped Chicken Tenders Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • 8 slices bacon (thinly sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    This ensures even cooking.
  2. Prepare Chicken Tenders

    Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels.

    Drying helps the bacon adhere better.
  3. Season the Chicken

    Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper over the tenders.

    Feel free to add your favorite spices.
  4. Wrap with Bacon

    Wrap each chicken tender with a slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick if necessary.

    Make sure bacon covers the chicken completely.
  5. Drizzle Olive Oil

    Lightly drizzle olive oil over the wrapped tenders.

    This helps the bacon crisp up.
  6. Bake the Tenders

    Place the bacon-wrapped chicken tenders on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes.

    Check for an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  7. Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

    Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
