Bacon Wrapped Chicken

I was looking for a good recipe for bacon wrapped chicken, and most of them included brown sugar and chili powder. I didn’t have any brown sugar, so I substituted honey. I wound up using way less sweetener than other recipes called for, and this still came out delicious!

Yes, this is turkey bacon, but it crisped up and caramelized in the oven and was absolutely delicious. You can use regular bacon too!
