Sweet and Spicy Bacon Chicken

4 chicken breasts cut in thirds (12 pieces)
Bacon slices
salt and pepper to taste
garlic powder
chili powder
brown sugar

Cut each breast into 3 pieces, season all the chicken with the spices, then wrap a bacon slice around each piece, roll in brown sugar and place into an oven proof dish....make sure you have some olive oil in the dish too, like 2 or 3 tablespoons is fine.

I guess I'm just not a baked chicken breast person. Or maybe we overcooked it (my friend and I spent more time talking and hanging out than watching the oven, lol.) Turned out pretty dry. But last night I had some in a sandwich with lots of mayo and it was really good that way.)

I'm going to try it again using thighs.

Yeah, thighs aren't nearly as dry.... Tracy (my co-cl here) prefers thighs too... but, I still like the breast. Sorry they didn't turn out so good for you but I'm glad they made a good sandwich with lots of mayo! I love mayo! Hope you will hang out with us here... come check us out in the "Chatter" area.... you sound like most of us... having more fun talking & hanging out with our friends than watching what's in the oven! LOL We'd love to get to know you!

Hey Lady,

It's still me, Cat. Had yet another name change.

Thanks for the re-welcome, haha.
