Bacon Wrapped Chicken
This ain’t your ordinary chicken dish! We’re taking some juicy chicken and wrapping it in crispy bacon for a flavor explosion that’s hard to beat.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. This is your seasoning mix.
- Take the chicken breasts and rub the seasoning mix all over them, making sure they’re well coated.
- Wrap each chicken breast with two slices of bacon, securing it with toothpicks if needed. Make sure the bacon is evenly distributed to get that nice crispy goodness.
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the wrapped chicken breasts and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until the bacon is browned.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
