by Rebecca October 18, 2022

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 25 mins | Total Time: 35 mins | Yield: 4 Servings

The flavors in this Bacon Wrapped Chicken are insanely delicious! From the spice mix to the crispy bacon coating, you will surely have a great time! Try this recipe now. You are so in for a treat!

Ingredients:

Seasoning:

1 ½ tsp onion powder

1 tsp cayenne pepper or use chili flakes or substitute with more smoked paprika

1 tsp pepper, freshly ground

½ tsp salt

1 ½ tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp garlic powder I used garlic granules, can use fresh minced garlic too

Chicken:

8 strips of bacon, thick ⅛-inch strips are best, regular ones can be used too

¼ c brown sugar feel free to adjust quantity as per YOUR taste preference

4 chicken breasts or use thin chicken tender cuts or large chicken thighs

Garnish:

Fresh parsley

Directions:

Prepare the oven and preheat it to 190 degrees C or 375 degrees F.

Add all the rub ingredients into a mixing bowl. (Garlic powder, salt, pepper, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and brown sugar) Whisk everything until well incorporated. Sprinkle 1/2 of the seasonings over the chicken breasts, then rub each until fully coated.

Wrap the chicken with about 2 slices of bacon. Seal it with a toothpick. Repeat the process with the rest of the chicken and bacon. Place them into a baking dish and make sure to leave a small space in between. Top with the rest of the seasoning mix.

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake the Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Breasts for about half an hour or until done.

Remove from the oven. Cool for a few minutes at room temperature to incorporate all the flavors.

Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top to garnish.

Serve with mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

Notes:

Feel free to use chicken thighs or chicken tenders for this recipe instead of chicken breasts.

You can use maple syrup instead of brown sugar.

Make sure to baste from time to time. You don’t want to put those drippings to waste.

You can broil it for about a minute for crispier bacon.
