I have been making a version of this for years. When I make it, I first cook the chicken covered in foil without sauce for about 30 minutes while frying bacon in skillet until done, along with diced onions. When the chicken is done, I add bbq sauce (i use sweet baby rays original recipe, as it goes great with this recipe), top with the cooked bacon and onion and some shredded cheddar. Then I pop it back in the oven long enough to melt the cheese. The submitter is right, it does pair well with mac & cheese. (but it is not a "trailer park" meal). I serve mine with mac &cheese OR wild rice and pineapple is a perfect compliment to this dish. HIGHLY recommended!!! (with the alterations I use my whole family gives this a five star rating!)

Love this recipe!!! On a personal note precook the bacon before putting on the chicken and I also added onions. The best barbeque sauce to use is sweet baby rays

Love,Love,Loved it! I made a few minor changes.. Instead of a butterflied chicken breast, I just took two thin slices of chicken breast & tied a string around them to keep them together, it got allot more flavor that way. I also cooked the bacon before I wrapped it around the chicken. Two pieces of bacon per serving is more than sufficient. Also, I fried some onions & chopped bacon together, then mixed them in with some BBQ sauce, then poured the sauce on top of the chicken 10 minutes before it finished baking. Some chopped cilantro on top of the finished chicken is really nice as well. Awesome recipe!!

This was a great recipe. I agree with the rest that you need to cook the bacon a little beforehand as it can come out soggy, but all in all a pretty good easy dish.

super easy to make, good to eat. A perfect dish to throw in the oven when I get home from work, and not have to worry about. Also great for leftovers the next day! I don't put the full amount of bbq sauce on, just enough to cover the chicken (and I use just a regular bbq sauce, not honey bbq flavor). I also just cook the bacon on it's own, and stick it on top before eating (so it doesn't get soggy, and remains crispy).

The bacon should definitely be pre-cooked before being placed on top of the chicken. I also added shredded cheese at the end.

This was very tasty. I didn't use the second pouring of sauce and I added cheese on top at the end and let it melt on. It was a little greasy but most of that stayed in the dish when I removed the chicken. Personally I think the flavor was very good...and the family liked it alot. My very picky son even ate a second helping...I love recipes that he will actually eat.

We used Sweet Baby Ray's Honey BBQ sauce; my pieces used a combination of Sweet Baby Ray's Honey and the original Sweet Baby Ray's. The bacon didn't crisp when my mom did this recipe for us; she says she should have cooked the bacon half-way before doing the recipe. This was pretty simple, so such details count a lot. The saltiness of the bacon combined well with the sweetness of the BBQ sauce. Was served over brown rice with brocolli.

A very ggod recipe, and I agree with other reviewers - you have to use quality BBQ sauce. It must be thick; hickory works as well as honey. Also, full bottle is too much - use less on the chicken, and add bacon on the top. If you wish to have more BBQ flavor on the bacon, carefully brush the strips with sauce - that way they'll be crisp at the end. You can make any chicken pieces this way, and even full chicken / cornish hen. Will definitely make again!

a good recipe, but the bacon did not crisp, it was as tender as the chicken... perhaps it would be crisp if cooked by itself first. and 18 0z bbq-sauce is too much, it pools around the chicken, and carmelizes on the pan, making it hard to clean. I'd recomend using about half the ammount of sauce recomended. i also cooked it for 35 minutes and it came out fine.

My husband and I really liked this dish. I only cooked 3 brests, used chicken seasoning salt and ground pepper. I used about 1/2 cup of honey mustard barbecue sauce and 1/2 cup of honey barbecue sauce. I also like my bacon crispy so I fried 6/7 slices first. I also put a couple slices of onion on top of the brests first, then the sauce, then the crispy bacon (which stayed crispy) and cooked as instructed. I served it with corn and some candied carrots. Will definitely make again.

Made some modifications...added honey to the BBQ sauce, pre-cooked the bacon and it was good. This a decent "starter" recipe definitely not glamorous but a decent family meal.

While the barbecue sauce and bacon juices left the chicken tasty and juicy, the bacon did not crisp at all. We ended up eating the chicken but not the bacon.
