Bacon Wrapped Chicken Breasts
Chicken wrapped in bacon and seasoned with a sweet and spicy rub. Don't let the ingredients intimidate you, this is an EASY recipe.
Ingredients
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp onion powder
2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp light brown sugar
1 tbsp corn starch
4 slices bacon
4 4 oz. boneless skinless chicken breast
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup parsley
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Rub 1/2 of the spice mix over chicken breasts.
Wrap each breast with 2 to 4 slices of bacon, depending on size. Place in a baking dish and sprinkle remaining spice mix over top.
Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Drain the drippings (yes, I included the bacon fat) in a pan, I whisked ckn bone broth and corn starch and added to a pan and cooked on medium heat for 1 minute until thickened. Chill and add gravy to chicken as desired. Serve topped with parsley.
