Ingredients:

• 1 lb chicken tenders (about 8 tenders)
• 8 slices of bacon
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Chicken Tenders: Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt.
3. Season Chicken Tenders: Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over all sides of the chicken tenders.
4. Wrap in Bacon: Wrap each chicken tender with a slice of bacon, starting at one end and overlapping slightly as you go. Secure the bacon with toothpicks if needed.
5. Cook: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon-wrapped chicken tenders and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the bacon is browned.
6. Bake: Transfer the browned chicken tenders to the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
7. Serve: Remove the chicken tenders from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
