Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Creole or Cajun seasoning (like Slap Ya Mama)
  • 4 to 6 slices bacon
  • 1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking dish with aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
  • Use a meat tenderizer if desired and flatten breasts to an even thickness.
  • Combine salt, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder and Creole/Cajun seasoning. Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of chicken.
  • Wrap each piece with slices of bacon.
  • Roll chicken in the brown sugar and place into the pan, ends facing down, securing with toothpicks, if preferred.
  • Bake uncovered for about 20 to 25 minutes, depending on size of breasts, or until the bacon is browned, chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F and juices run clear when pierced.
  • Quickly pass under the broiler to crisp up the bacon more, if desired.
  • Plate and spoon pan drippings over each serving.
