Happily, I’m not doing Thanksgiving this year..going to friends, but I’m looking for a great appetizer that is somewhat Thanksgiving themed/related...open to suggestions
Cut raw chicken or turkey breast in one inch cubes. Wrap with 1/2 strip thin sliced bacon. Secure with toothpick.
Roll in mixture of two parts brown sugar, one part chili powder.
Place on racked pan. ( I use a cookie sheet with cooling racks), bake at 375 for 15 minutes or until poultry is done.
I can’t go to any party without my friends asking for these.
I have used a similar recipe often is ALWAYS a hit and never disappoints . The only difference is I dip the chicken in Dijon mustard before the bacon, and I use chipotle chili powder.
You wrap the bacon around the cube..ha means that 2 sides are open. Have you ever double wrapped with two strips..so the chicken is completely encased in bacon? Yum. Also..ever toss the chicken int he sugar/chili powder mix BEFORE wrapping in bacon? The possibilities seem endless, and delicious..YUM!
