Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 12 chickens tenders
  • 12 slices turkey bacon , cut in half lengthwise
  • 0.33 cups light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a cooling rack on top of a rimmed baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Mix paprika, salt, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Sprinkle seasoning over both sides of each chicken tender. Wrap each tender with two strips of bacon, tucking the ends in to secure.

  3. 3

    Mix brown sugar and chili powder together in a small bowl. Gently roll each bacon-wrapped tender in the brown sugar mixture, pressing down to ensure good coverage.

  4. 4

    Arrange tenders on top of the prepared cooling rack, making sure to not overcrowd.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crisp and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
