Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Tenders Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Recipes. (Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Tenders Recipe). The perfect marriage of smoky and sweet flavors is what you'll get when you use the outdoor grill to cook up these chicken tenders! I like to use center-cut bacon since it is leaner and less likely to cause flare-ups. I find cutting the bacon lengthwise, and then using the thin strips to wrap the bacon, is much easier than trying to wrap using a wide strip. Use your favorite BBQ rub on the chicken!

Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Tenders Recipe

Ingredients

8 chicken tenders

1 tablespoon BBQ rub (such as McCormick®)

8 slices center-cut bacon

cut in half lengthwise

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon water

Dinner

Directions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Season chicken tenders with BBQ rub. Wrap each tender with 2 thin strips of bacon tucking in the ends to secure.

Step 3

Mix together honey and water in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 4

Place chicken tenders on the preheated grill and reduce heat to medium-low. Close lid and grill tenders turning every 2 to 3 minutes until bacon is browned and chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (73 degrees C) 12 to 14 minutes. For crispier bacon increase heat during the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Step 5

Move tenders to indirect heat and brush with honey mixture. Transfer to a plate and serve.
