What is it about wrapping food in bacon that just turns me on. I mean seriously everything is better with a little bacon. Hahaha…. you think I’m nuts! I love to make bbq chicken during the summer, because I love to use my grill. Now yes, I live in sunny Florida, but that doesn’t mean the grill season is a 12 month event, sometimes you just can’t use your grill here, but on the days that you can My husband and I definitely take advantage of it.
I had some left over chicken breasts in the refrigerator the other day that I knew I needed to cook and decided to do something a little different with it. I was gonna grill it of course, but before I did I was gonna wrap those babies in some thick cut juicy bacon!
You know your drooling! 🙂 Simple, and so yummilicious! Spice your next batch of chicken breasts with a little bacon and your favorite bbq sauce…. just make sure you have some wet wipes near by… Your gonna need em!
