• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (or sub with more paprika)

1 tbsp flour

1/2 tsp salt

Black pepper

4 large chicken thigh fillets (about 5oz / 150g each, cut in half, Note 1)

8 pieces bacon (, streaky, Note 2)

2 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp olive oil (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 200C/390F (fan forced / convection) (Note 3)

Line tray with baking paper.

Combine Seasoning in a small bowl. Place brown sugar in a separate bowl.

Coat chicken in Seasoning, shaking off excess. Place on one end of bacon and roll up, finishing with the seam side down. Repeat with remaining chicken.

Coat chicken in sugar - use your fingers to rub it on if required. Place on baking tray.

Drizzle with olive oil (helps make it brown faster, optional)

Bake for 25 minutes. If the bacon is not golden enough for your taste, switch on the broiler for a few minutes.

Brush the juices on the tray onto the bacon to make it glossy and juicy. Serve on mashed potatoes, drizzled with extra pan juices if desired!
