Bacon Wrapped Chicken with Pan Sauce
My original hope was to make something so spicy that my husband would get over his current obsession with heat. However, what emerged is a well-balanced, delicious recipe (spicy yet sweet) highlighted by tender, moist chicken and a beautiful pan sauce. So when I say this is the best chicken ever, I am not lying!
