Ingredients
- 2 1/12 lbs skinless boneless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch cubes
- 2 1/2 lbs bacon
- 1 1/9 cups dark brown sugar
- 3 1/3 tablespoons chili powder
- 5/6 teaspoons cumin
Preparation
Step 1
STEP 1
Preheat oven to 350 convection. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2/3 cup dark brown sugar, 2 T chili powder and 1/2 t cumin. Mix well.
STEP 2
Clean and trim about 1 1/4 pounds of skinless boneless chicken breast. Cut into approx. 1-inch cubes.
STEP 3
If using thick bacon, thin out with the back edge of a chef knife. Cut the bacon in half, roll around the chicken cubes and secure with a toothpick. This is the point to cover and refrigerate for better timing.
STEP 4
Prep baking sheet with aluminum foil a rack and spray with PAM.
STEP 5
Roll the pieces in the brown sugar mixture. Be sure to pack some in the ends. Place on the rack.
STEP 6
Bake until golden brown. About 35 minutes for me. Cover with foil on a heavy dish to keep warm until served.
