Crack Chicken Tenders Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 lb chicken tenders (or chicken breast cut into strips)
• 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
• 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup cooked bacon bits (or crumbled cooked bacon)
• 1 tbsp garlic powder (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1-2 tbsp olive oil or butter for cooking

Instructions:

1. Prep the Chicken: Season the chicken tenders with salt, pepper, and garlic powder (optional). Set aside.

2. Cook the Bacon: If you’re using raw bacon, cook it until crispy, then chop it into small pieces.

3. Make the Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, ranch seasoning mix, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well blended.

4. Cook the Chicken: In a skillet, heat the olive oil or butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken tenders and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.

5. Add the Sauce: Once the chicken is cooked, lower the heat and spread the cream cheese mixture over the tenders. Let it melt for a few minutes, then top with the crispy bacon.

6. Serve: Serve the crack chicken tenders hot, and enjoy! You can serve them with ranch dressing, a side of vegetables, or even over a bed of rice.

Tips:

• If you want to make this recipe even easier, you can bake the tenders at 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes before adding the creamy sauce.
• For a little extra flavor, try adding some green onions or chopped jalapeños for a bit of kick.
