Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut 12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast into 12 bite-sized cubes approximately 1-inch each.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 4 oz softened cream cheese, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until combined.
  3. Step 3: Using a small spoon, spread about 1 tsp of the cream cheese herb mixture onto each chicken cube, then wrap each with 1/2 slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick if needed.
  4. Step 4: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add bacon-wrapped chicken bites and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until bacon is crispy and chicken edges are golden.
  5. Step 5: Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).
  6. Step 6: Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes before serving warm.
