Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease a 9x13 baking dish and set aside.
- Prepare stuffing according to directions and cool completely.
- Lay each chicken thigh on a cutting board and place stuffing in the center (approximately 2-3 tablespoons depending on the size of the chicken thighs).
- Fold each chicken thigh closed around the stuffing and tightly wrap with bacon. Sprinkle garlic powder and paprika on top of the thighs.
- Place any leftover stuffing on the bottom of the baking dish and place chicken thighs seam side down on top of the stuffing.
- Bake for 35 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Notes
- Additional stuffing can be added to the pan if desired.
- Ensure stuffing is completely cooled before stuffing chicken.
- The center of each piece of chicken should reach 165°F.
- To Use Boneless Chicken Breasts
- To use boneless chicken breasts, butterfly the chicken breast open (so you can open it like a book) and pound to ½" thickness.
- Fill with the stuffing mixture and wrap in bacon (you may need extra bacon if the chicken breasts are large). Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes or until the center reaches 165°F.
