Midweek Dinner: Make it Spicy Sweet

Did you ever notice how certain flavors just go together ... chocolate and well anything pretty much, but lets not go there. How about spicy and sweet?  You get the heat you get the sweet ... it makes your tongue happy and your tummy too

This recipe came from Innovative Aesthetics, where I go for Ideal Protein meetings.  All the recipes in the packet are from either Dusty or Lindsay( my awesome-tastic coach).  I'm not sure who came up with this recipe but it is fantastic and oh so easy.  Perfect for spicing up a hump day!

Sweet Chicken Bacon Wraps
Makes 12-15 wraps

  • 4 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
  • 1 (1-pound) package sliced turkey bacon
  • 2/3 cups firmly packed Splenda brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes. Cut each bacon slice into thirds. Wrap each chicken cube with bacon and secure with a wooden pick or skewer. Stir together brown sugar and chili powder. Dredge wrapped chicken in mixture. Coat a rack and broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place chicken wrap on rack in broiler pan. Bake 350 for 30 to 35 minutes or until bacon is crisp.

That's it.  So simple and so delish!!

This is about 4 servings so I tend to cut it in half and just make enough for the hubs and me.

I also cook it all up with the veggies right on the same pan.  That minimizes clean up too - only 1 pan to wash :)

Enjoy!!!
