Main Ingredients

4 pieces chicken breasts Use boneless, skinless breasts for best results.
8 slices bacon Thick-cut bacon is recommended.
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese Can use gluten-free Parmesan if needed.
4 cloves minced garlic Fresh garlic for best flavor.
2 tablespoons olive oil Extra virgin olive oil will add richness.
to taste Salt and pepper Adjust based on personal preference.
Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley for garnish Add a fresh touch when serving.

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly combined.

Assembly

Spoon a portion of the garlic Parmesan mixture over each chicken breast.
Wrap two slices of bacon around each breast, ensuring it covers as much surface area as possible.
Arrange the wrapped chicken in a greased baking dish. Sprinkle any remaining garlic mixture over the top.

Cooking

Bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is fully cooked. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) using a meat thermometer.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

To enhance flavor, consider marinating the chicken in olive oil, salt, and pepper before coating. This dish pairs wonderfully with roasted vegetables or a light salad.
