SWEET CHICKEN BACON WRAPS (PAULA DEEN)



Sweet Chicken Bacon Wraps (Paula Deen) image

Hey you Paula Deen fans, she has a new magazine, "Cooking with Paula Deen"--this recipe is from the premier issue. It was so yummy looking, I couldn't wait to try it. I added another 15 minutes to the cooking time suggested (30-35 minutes) and It was just right, but oven temperatures vary, so check on it during the last few minutes of cooking time. I'm also going to add a few dashes of cayenne pepper next time for something hot and sweet!

Chicken wrapped in bacon... Goes well with corn, probably other vegetables or bread, too.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon onion powder
4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (16 ounce) package bacon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • 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).
  • Serve topped with parsley.
