Game day festivities are happening this weekend and I am thinking you need to add this incredible Cheesy Bacon Chicken to your list!
I received a free sample of Tyson Chicken Strips to try but all opinions are 100% my own.
Weather its for sporting events or just a week night dinner I am always on the look out for things that are quick and easy. I’ve told you before I have a bunch of hungry kids running around and they do not usually like to wait on their food. They want it now, now, NOW Mom!
I’m going to tell you my kids came home and this was waiting for them for a snack. I made this chicken while they were at school and actually had a few bites of myself when I was taking these pictures. I had a hard time stopping myself from eating it all. My son Nick said that I should make this for the Super Bowl! I said duh huh, that’s why I am testing it out! And I will tell you that I ate it with my fingers. Some of the kids grab forks but if you don’t mind getting a little sauce on your fingers then go for it! You won’t regret it!
