Ingredients

  • 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (4-5 ounces each)
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 12 slices of bacon

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix the brown sugar, garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  • Coat each chicken breast thoroughly with the brown sugar mixture.

  • Arrange the wrapped chicken in a baking pan with at least 2-inch high sides.
  • Sprinkle any remaining brown sugar mixture over the top of the chicken.
  • Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and the bacon is browned and crispy. Be cautious to avoid burning the brown sugar.
