These Bacon Brown Sugar Chicken Tenders are the perfect combination of sweet and savory! Perfect for dinner or game day! 😋🍗
Ingredients:
1 pound chicken tenders
8 slices of bacon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Wrap each chicken tender with a slice of bacon, securing the ends with toothpicks if necessary.
Roll the bacon-wrapped chicken tenders in the brown sugar mixture, coating them thoroughly.
Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
