A quick and easy recipe for tender, juicy chicken thighs wrapped in smoky bacon.

📝 Ingredients

  • 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs (~ 4-ounces each)
  • kosher salt (to taste)
  • freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 8 bacon slices (ideally thin slices (see recipe note))

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Preheat oven to 400˚F.
  2. 2Place an oven-safe rack inside a foil lined rimmed baking sheet (for easy cleanup).
  3. 3Season chicken thighs with kosher salt and pepper. (Keep in mind that bacon is salty, so take care to not over season with salt.)
  4. 4Wrap each chicken thigh with a slice of bacon and place on rack in baking sheet (keeping the thighs as flat as possible and taking care to minimize how much the bacon strip overlaps itself). Bake 25 to 35 minutes, or until bacon is crisp to your liking and an instant read thermometer reads 165˚F in the center of thighs. Serve.
