Ingredients

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

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and onion powder. Use half of this spice mixture to rub over the chicken breasts.
Wrap each chicken breast with 2-4 bacon slices, ensuring full coverage. Place them in a baking dish and sprinkle the remaining spice mix evenly over the bacon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is fully cooked (no longer pink inside). Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
