preheat oven too 400°

sprinkle chicken tenders with salt, pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper (optional, but totally recommended!)

wrap each tender with a slice of bacon

roll the bacon wrapped chicken tenders in 1 cup of the brown sugar

in a separate bowl, mix the rest of the brown sugar (1/2 cup) sprinkle in some onion powder and a pinch of the cayenne pepper. ( this is to your liking there are no exact measurements)

arrange chicken in a single layer in a baking dish (or 2) and sprinkle on the remaining brown sugar mixture

bake, uncovered 15 minutes, baste with juices, turn over, baste again, and cook for another 15-20 minutes
