Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 pieces bacon slices
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 pieces toothpicks
- 0.25 cup optional barbecue sauce
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your George Foreman grill for at least 5 minutes with the lid closed.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Rub each chicken breast with olive oil on both sides, then season generously with the spice mixture.
Step 4
Wrap each chicken breast with 2 slices of bacon, ensuring that the bacon fully covers the chicken. Secure the bacon with toothpicks at the ends.
Step 5
Place the wrapped chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook for 10–12 minutes, or until the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the bacon is crispy.
Step 6
If using barbecue sauce, brush it evenly over the chicken during the last 2 minutes of cooking for a caramelized glaze.
Step 7
Carefully remove the chicken from the grill, discard the toothpicks, and let it rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Serve hot with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
