Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 8 slices Bacon
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and trim off any excess fat. If the breasts are very thick, you may slice them lengthwise into thinner fillets.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of each chicken breast.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil over the seasoned chicken breasts and rub it in to help the spices adhere better.

Step 6

Wrap each chicken breast tightly with two slices of bacon, overlapping slightly to ensure full coverage. Tuck the ends of the bacon underneath the chicken to secure them.

Step 7

Place the wrapped chicken breasts seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) and the bacon is crispy.

Step 9

If desired, broil the chicken bacon wraps for 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking to further crisp up the bacon.

Step 10

Remove the chicken wraps from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot with your favorite side dishes.
