- In a medium-sized skillet, heat 2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil at medium-high heat. Add onions, crumbled bacon bits and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Stirring frequently, cook mixture until onions are browned on the edges.
- Pour vino cotto over the onion and bacon mixture. Lower the heat and cook until the vino cotto begins to bubble. Remove skillet from heat.
- If using chicken tenderloins, remove the outer membrane, if attached, from each tenderloin before cooking. To do this, lift the membrane and with your other hand, glide a sharp knife under the membrane, gently pressing downward on the chicken with the knife while pulling the membrane upward until it is removed. Do this for each tenderloin.
- Heat 2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high to high heat.

- Reheat the onion and bacon mixture.
- Place chicken on each serving plate and top with the onion and bacon mixture. Serve hot.
