This has been in my recipe book for years. Chicken bacon wrap is a quick dinner recipe, which makes it fantastic for this rainy Wednesday. Quick, easy, and flavorful. Made with just a few ingredients that you probably already have.
What do I need to make this recipe?
- 5 pieces chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
- 6- 7 slices of bacon
- Salt
- Pepper
- 2-3 cloves garlic
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
- A small dab of extra virgin olive oil (for greasing, if your baking sheet isn’t glass or ceramic)
- A sheet of foil to cover while baking
Steps to make Chicken Bacon Wrap:
- Preheat oven to 350F. If your baking sheet sticks to food while baking spread just a dap of extra virgin olive oil.
- Mince 2-3 cloves of garlic set aside. (If they’re small cloves, use 3.)
- Mix 1 Tablespoon of tomato paste with 1 Tablespoon of mayonnaise.
- Open the chicken thighs, inside facing up.
- Add a small pinch of salt, pepper and minced garlic on each thigh.
- Roll the chicken thighs so that the inside stays inside.
- Wrap with bacon each chicken thigh. Transfer the chicken thighs to a baking sheet.
- Brush each with mayonnaise and tomato mix.
- Cover with foil and put in the oven for 30 minutes. Take off the foil and bake for another 10 minutes. I like to BROIL the last two minutes both sides of the chicken bacon wrap to get the nice dark color of the bacon.
- Enjoy!
