Cheddar Bacon Chicken Tenders

Cheddar Bacon Chicken Tenders

I love chicken, in fact my husband usually says, "how are you making the chicken tonight?" He knows me too well. There are just so many ways to prepare it. These chicken tenders go together quickly and are delicious.

The bacon gave it a nice crunch and the cheese melted to make it all stick together. 

You can make any sauce you like, I had some sweet and sour sauce, so we used that, but a honey mustard or a sour cream sauce would work too.

I did bread mine and then let them sit for about an hour but you don't need to do this. I just find that the breading sticks on the chicken better if I let them sit for awhile. However, if in a hurry, no need to.
