Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the 1 lb chicken tenders with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 2
Wrap each chicken tender with 1 bacon strip, stretching the bacon slightly. Secure with a toothpick through the middle.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Sear the wrapped chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until bacon is browned.
Step 4
Transfer skillet to oven and bake until chicken is cooked through (internal temp 165°F) and bacon is crisp, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 5
Remove toothpicks, sprinkle with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, and serve hot.
