Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, mustard, and lemon juice until well combined.
Take a strip of bacon and wrap it around a piece of chicken. Secure with a toothpick to hold it in place. Repeat with the remaining chicken and bacon.
Using a pastry brush, generously coat each bacon-wrapped chicken bite with the honey mustard glaze. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (75°C).
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Let the bites cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as an appetizer or main dish.
Tips:
- Use toothpicks to secure the bacon around the chicken bites for easier handling and cooking.
- Preheat the oven to ensure even cooking and crispy bacon.
- Marinate the chicken in the honey mustard mixture for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
- Place the bites on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to allow excess fat to drip off and to achieve a crispier texture.
- Turn the chicken bites halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly on all sides.
