What could be better than bacon-wrapped chicken bites? If you've been a reader for a while, you know appetizers are my favorite food!
In fact, we often order nothing but appetizers when we go out, and I’ll even serve a few appetizers for an easy dinner. With wine, of course!
This is one of my family’s favorite chicken recipes, probably because it includes bacon! The next time you have to bring food to a party, head to the kitchen and make these delicious Bacon-Wrapped Chicken bites on Ritz Crackers.
I have the friendliest husband in town, and he's always suggesting friends come back to our house after events. I need to be ready for anything!
All the ingredients in these bacon wrapped chicken bites are staples in my house. I can whip these up with my eyes closes and have them on the table in no time.
These really are so easy to make. You can switch out the cheese and the crackers for other varieties, but you have to top these bites with bacon!
This easy recipe will be gobbled up by even the picky eaters! A few more appetizers and a couple of desserts, and you have a party ready to happen!
Ingredients
You will need savory honey mustard, Worcestershire Sauce, boneless chicken breast, bacon, white cheddar cheese, crackers, and fresh parsley.
Cut the chicken into 24 pieces.
Slice the bacon into thirds, making 24 pieces.
Cut the cheese into 12 slices, and cut each in half, making 24 pieces.
Wrap bacon pieces around the chicken pieces and secure them with toothpicks.
Place bacon-wrapped chicken on a cookie sheet lined with foil and broil 4 inches from heat for 10 minutes, turning once, or until bacon is crisp and chicken is cooked through.
Turn the broiler off and set the oven to 350º.
Remove toothpicks and place crackers on another baking sheet.
Top each cracker with cheese.
Bake 4-5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Top each cheesy cracker with chicken.
Add a dollop of honey mustard to the top of the bacon.
Sprinkle with parsley.
Aren't they pretty? Go ahead and try one - you deserve it after all that work!
These are so good I can't wait to make another batch! And if you love bacon, you've got to try these bacon wrapped scallops!
