The kids’ menu staple gets an indulgent update, proving once again that bacon makes everything better.
Ingredients
8 fresh sage leaves
8 chicken tenders (about 1 ¼ pounds)
8 slices bacon
½ teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
Place a sage leaf on each chicken tender, then wrap each with a bacon slice. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add tenders, sage side down, and cook until fat is rendered and bacon is browned, about 6 minutes. Flip and cook until tenders are cooked through, 6 minutes. With tongs, transfer to a wire rack set on a rimmed baking sheet to drain.
