8 to 12slicesof baconthis depends on how large the chicken breasts are, I used 2 to 2 1/2 slices of bacon for each.
For the Glaze:
½cupmaple syrup
2teaspoonsDijon mustard
Chopped fresh parsleyfor garnish, optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425˚F.
Season each chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Wrap each chicken breast with bacon slices and place in a 9 x 13' baking dish, seam-side down.
In a small bowl whisk together maple syrup and Dijon mustard until well combined.
Using a pastry brush, brush each chicken breast with maple mustard glaze. Reserve some to baste while baking.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until done, brushing with the glaze a couple of times during baking. Chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165˚F on an instant-read thermometer. Start checking for doneness at around 40 - 45 minutes.
To serve, spoon juices over chicken and garnish with parsley.
