Bacon Brown Sugar Chicken Tenders

Ingredients:

1 lb chicken tenders

10-12 slices of bacon

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and set a wire rack on top.

Prepare the Brown Sugar Mixture:

In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.

Wrap the Chicken:

Wrap each chicken tender tightly with a slice of bacon. Roll the bacon-wrapped chicken in the brown sugar mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated.

Arrange and Bake:

Place the wrapped chicken tenders on the prepared wire rack. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through.

Serve Hot:

Remove from the oven and let the tenders rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the sweet, smoky, and savory flavors!
