1
Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken tenders until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
2
Cook the Bacon
In another skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on paper towels to drain excess grease.
3
Assemble the Sandwich
On a slice of bread, layer the cooked chicken tenders, crispy bacon, sliced tomato, and shredded cheddar cheese. Drizzle Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce over the top.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Top with another slice of bread and grill the sandwich in the same skillet over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
5
Serve
Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve warm with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
