Grilled Bacon Wrapped Chicken
Here is another grill recipe for those hot days of summer, grilled bacon wrapped chicken.
This low carb, trim healthy mama s, recipe is easy peasy. All you need are chicken breasts sliced into strips or tenderloins and bacon. A little seasoning if you want it and a grill. I have been buying meat at our local grocery store when it is buy one get one free. I seem to have an abundance of chicken breasts that I need to use up. This was such an easy way to cook them up. And another win, my hubby grilled them!!
I am all about utilizing different appliances in different seasons.
With this dinner we grilled the bacon wrapped chicken and zucchini. There was no reason to turn the oven on during the hottest part of the day. If you haven’t grilled zucchini, you are missing out. Here is how we usually do it, grilled zucchini. These would also be amazing when you are camping. We camp a few times a year and having simple meals to grill makes my life easier. This recipe is so simple, I don’t know why I didn’t think of doing this sooner.
This recipe is so simple you really don’t need a recipe.
You can spice the original up with some Tony Chachere seasoning or jalapeno seasoning. I used some garlic herb seasoning on top. This is such a simple recipe for any busy season. You don’t have to reserve this just for summer and the grill. You can bake these in the oven and bake some veggies at the same time. Maybe even on one pan and let the bacon grease flavor the veggies that are on the pan too. This is now on my to do list for cooler weather. Yum!!
