Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Strips

By felcrs0513

Ingredients

• Ingredients:
• 1 pound boneless chicken breasts
• 20 thin bacon slices
• 3 tbsp honey
• 2 tsp coarse mustard
• fresh lemon juice

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

Cut the chicken breasts—or fillets, as we call them here—in thin strips. Not too thin, the bacon has to brown and if the chicken is too thin it’ll get dry before the bacon gets crispy. That would be a sin

Grab a bowl and combine 3 tbsp honey with 2 tsp coarse mustard

Squeeze in some lemon juice. Not too much, about a tbsp or so. I think orange juice will be great, too

Bacon rights all the wrongs in this world. It brings justice to all the injustices. Or something like that.

I asked my favorite pair of extra hands to wrap the bacon around the chicken strips

Place them in a roasting tray or on a cookie sheet. If you’re afraid of cleaning up, line the tray or sheet with some tin-foil first. I’m hard-core (And own a dish washing machine. It helps).

Brush the chicken bites with half the marinade

As soon as one side is done, take the tray out of the oven. Does this look good or what? I could never be a vegetarian simply because I cannot forsake bacon. I absolutely love it, in an artery clogging kind of way

Flip them over and brush them with the remaining marinade

Put them back in the oven for another 10 to 13 minutes, until the other side is crispy as well. Keep an eye on them.
