Bacon is a versatile and delectable pig delicacy that we all enjoy. Nowadays, it goes with everything. We all enjoy a good bite of bacon, whether it’s in a pasta, an appetizer, or even dessert. We love it even more when it’s wrapped around succulent, juicy chicken tenders and drenched in a brown sugar coating that caramelizes into sugary, salty bliss.

Ingredients
8 slices bacon
¾ teaspoons garlic powder
¾ teaspoons onion powder

Wrap bacon around each chicken tender and fasten with toothpicks.
Brown sugar each bacon-wrapped tender completely.
