30 Days of Holiday: Sweet Chicken Bacon Wraps




This is an unexpected mix of flavors that, once tasted, will not be forgotten.  They have been a favorite at our annual Christmas Eve party ever since I first made them, about five years ago.
During cooking, these morsels generate a large amount of grease.  For this reason, you will want to cook them on a broiler pan that will allow the grease to drain while cooking.  Non-stick spray is essential but will not completely prevent sticking.  For easier release, remove chicken from pan immediately from oven.

What's In It:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (The kind that aren't shot up with hormones and antibiotics don't just taste better.  They are much better for you!)
1 lb. sliced bacon
2/3 c. firmly packed brown sugar
2 tbl. chili powder

How To Make It:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch chunks.  Cut bacon slices into thirds.
Wrap each chunk of chicken with bacon, securing with a toothpick.
Mix brown sugar and chili powder in medium bowl and dredge the wrapped chicken in mixture.
Place chicken on broiler pan sprayed with non-stick spray.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until bacon is crisp.
