How To Make Bacon-Wrapped Honey Mustard Tenders
- Mix together the mustard, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper.
- Add the chicken tenderloins and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour. (Note: You can leave them in the fridge for longer than 1 hour if needed.)
- Remove chicken from marinade and season with pepper. Wrap a slice of bacon around each one.

Bacon-Wrapped Honey Mustard Tenders Recipe Tips
You can use toothpicks to secure the bacon but it’s not necessary.
Do NOT use thick-cut bacon. It takes too long to cook and get crispy.
Boneless chicken breasts can be used instead of chicken tenders. Just slice each one into about 6 strips.
Storage
Leftovers will keep for 3 to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the oven or an air fryer to crisp the bacon up.
