Recipe View Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove toothpicks, if used. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken breasts in barbeque sauce for at least 30 minutes before wrapping with bacon.
Use a high-quality barbeque sauce to complement the smoky bacon flavor.
Feel free to adjust the amount of barbeque sauce to your preference.
To prevent the bacon from burning, you can broil the chicken for the last few minutes of cooking to crisp up the bacon.

    The bacon was a little too crispy for my taste, so next time I'll cook it for less time before wrapping the chicken.
