Best Cheesy Bacon Ranch Chicken
Any type of chicken is fine for this bacon wrapped chicken breast recipe, such as thighs or drumsticks instead of breasts. It’s important to note that no matter the chicken you choose, be sure that each piece is roughly the same size so it will cook evenly. You’ll want to avoid using a thick cut bacon for this recipe as it will take much longer to cook.
If you like your bacon crispy like I do, it’s fine to broil your bacon wrapped chicken for about 2-3 minutes at the end of the cooking time. Watch closely though; the sauce has sugar in it and will burn quickly if left to broil for too long. It’s worth the extra effort since the crispy bacon, in my opinion, adds the perfect texture to the dish.
The best way to tell if you chicken is cooked is by slicing it open. If it’s white all the way to the middle, then it’s done. However, if you don’t want to slice into your chicken before you serve it, a meat thermometer comes in quite handy. Stick the thermometer through the middle of the chicken, stopping about midway through. The safe temperature you’re looking for is at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit or 75 degrees Celsius.

My bacon wrapped chicken breast recipe calls for up to 30 minutes of baking time. Since all ovens aren’t created equally, the times for baking can vary greatly. Some wrapped chicken recipes can take as long as 40 minutes to bake. It also depends on the thickness of your chicken breasts. Larger, thicker breasts will take longer to cook. This recipe assumes an average sized chicken breast of 4-5 ounces.
We love to serve our bacon wrapped chicken with mashed potatoes and broccoli. However, it goes great with a lot of other side options. It’s also delicious served with buttered pasta or rice pilaf with a salad on the side.

Creamy Bacon Mushroom Thyme Chicken
I have been eating bacon wrapped chicken my whole life, although my mom used to make it a little bit differently as she would bake this in the oven. (Instructions for that are in the recipe notes!)
Although baking it is easy and delicious, it doesn’t result in the crispy bacon that you see here. So, I changed this up a bit and decided to prepare this in a skillet instead. Not only is the bacon crispier, but the chicken is seared in bacon drippings which gives it so much texture, color, and flavor.
I serve this with an easy white sauce (simply made with sour cream and cream of chicken soup). It tastes so good when you drizzle it over the chicken and a hot baked potato.

Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, wrap each with 1 strip of cooled bacon and use a toothpick to secure the bacon in place. Add the chicken back to the pan over medium low heat. Use tongs to rotate to allow the bacon to finish cooking and crisp up on all sides. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with baked potatoes and white sauce.
