Sweet Heat BBQ Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bites

Ingredients

  •  1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into
  •  1/2 Tablespoon chipotle chili powder
  •  1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  •  1 teaspoon paprika
  •  1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  •  8 slices bacon, cut into thirds
  •  1/4 cup brown sugar
  •  3/4 cup of your favorite BBQ Sauce (we use Sweet Baby Rays)
  •  fresh chives to garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F and line a large backing sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place chicken in a medium-sized bowl; sprinkle with chili powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder and toss to coat. Wrap a bacon piece around each chicken cube; secure with a toothpick. Place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  3. Sprinkle bacon wrapped chicken with brown sugar. Place into oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  4. Remove pan from oven, brush wrapped chicken piece with BBQ sauce. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink and bacon is crisp. (if you want them extra crispy, broil for 5-8 minutes, watching closely)
  5. Serve immediately, garnish with chives, if desired.
