Crack Chicken Tenders Recipe

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the Chicken:
    Season the chicken tenders with a little salt and pepper on both sides. Place them in a greased baking dish in a single layer.
  3. Make the Sauce:
    In a medium bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, ranch seasoning mix, shredded cheddar cheese, and bacon bits. Stir until everything is well combined.
  4. Coat the Chicken:
    Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the chicken tenders, spreading it out evenly to cover them completely.
  5. Bake:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese sauce is bubbly and golden.
  6. Optional Garnish:
    Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions for added flavor and color.
  7. Serve:
    Serve the crack chicken tenders with a side of your choice—like mashed potatoes, rice, or veggies.

Tips:

  • For extra flavor, you can add some garlic powder or onion powder to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Low-carb option: If you’re looking for a lower-carb version, you can skip the breadcrumbs and serve the chicken tenders with a side of cauliflower mash or steamed veggies.

These crack chicken tenders are a rich and indulgent meal, perfect for a weeknight dinner or even for special occasions!
