Bacon Wrapped Chicken

Ingredients:

• 1 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (thighs also work)
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 packages regular cut bacon
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/2 cup mustard (I used honey mustard)
• 3 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• dash cayenne (optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F, making sure the oven rack is about 1/3 away from the oven top. Sprinkle, chicken breasts lightly with sea salt, ground pepper and garlic powder.
2. Line a baking pan with a baking sheet or foil (to collect drippings)and cooking rack. Slice chicken strips to about 1 1/2 inches thick and wrap in a slice of bacon. Place each on a wire rack set over the baking pan.
3. Mix the honey, mustard vinegar and cayenne (optional) in a small mixing bowl until combined.
4. Baste the top of the bacon wrapped chicken strips with honey mustard mixture and place in the oven for about 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned on top. Remove the pan from the oven and flip over chicken strips with a pair of kitchen tongs. Baste the other side of the strips with mixture and return to the oven for another 12-15 minutes or until bacon is crispy.
5. Remove from oven and serve.
