Cajun Bacon Wrapped Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Rub 1/2 of the spice mix over chicken breasts.
• Wrap each breast with 2 to 4 slices of bacon, depending on size. Place in a baking dish and sprinkle remaining spice mix over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve topped with parsley.

Steps:

• Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise; remove seeds and center membranes. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, cheddar cheese and Cajun seasoning. Stuff about 1 1/2 teaspoonfuls into each pepper half. Cut bacon strips in half widthwise. In a large skillet cook bacon until partially cooked. Wrap a bacon piece around each pepper; secure with a toothpick.
• Place on a wire rack in a shallow baking pan. bake uncovered at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Discard the toothpicks and serve immediately.
