Turkey Bacon Brown Sugar Chicken Tenders: An Incredible 7-Step Recipe


  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound chicken tenders
– 8 slices turkey bacon
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Turkey Bacon Brown Sugar Chicken Tenders is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. Prepare the Chicken: Rinse the chicken tenders under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. This helps the coating stick better.

3. Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the chicken tenders.

4. Wrap with Turkey Bacon: Take a slice of turkey bacon and wrap it around each chicken tender. Overlap the bacon slightly to ensure it sticks.

5. Coat with Brown Sugar: Place the wrapped chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of each wrapped tender.

6. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the chicken tenders. This will help the bacon crisp up during cooking.

7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
