- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme dried
- 2 pounds chicken tenderloin approximately 16

Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Mist the air-fryer basket with cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, combine sea salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and thyme. Mix well.
- Lay chicken tenders out on a clean surface. Sprinkle spices evenly over chicken tenders.

- Arrange bacon-wrapped chicken tenders on prepared air-fryer basket.
- Bake in preheated air fryer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked and the bacon crispy. I sometimes broil the tenders for an additional 1 to 2 minutes in the oven to get them extra crispy.
- Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
