Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 3 bacon slices; fry until crisp; transfer bacon to a paper towel lined plate; crumble; set aside.
There should be about 1 T. bacon drippings remaining in the skillet. If there isn’t, add 1 T. butter to the skillet before adding chicken.
Season chicken with salt, black pepper and garlic powder, to taste. Place chicken breast tenders in the skillet; cook about 4 minutes per side, until juices run clear and the chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet; set aside.

Melt 1 T. butter in skillet; add mushrooms; cook until tender. Add in 1/2 c. chicken broth/skillet; bring to a simmer; add in 1/2 c. heavy whipping cream.; stir to combine. Allow sauce to simmer for 4-5 minutes to thicken; add in finely grated Parmesan cheese.
