Instructions

  1. Step 1: Slice chicken breasts horizontally into 1-inch-thick cutlets. Pat dry with paper towels and season with garlic powder and salt.
  2. Step 2: Wrap each chicken cutlet with 2 bacon strips, securing with toothpicks. Place on a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
  3. Step 3: In a small saucepan, combine apple cider vinegar, coconut aminos, and apple cider. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes until reduced by half and syrupy.
  4. Step 4: Bake bacon-wrapped chicken at 375°F (190°C) for 20-22 minutes until bacon is crisp and chicken is cooked through, basting twice with glaze. Ensure glaze coats the chicken evenly and caramelizes slightly on the edges.
