I hate to fall into a mealtime rut, so I'm always trying something new. This chicken is a wonderful dish when there's only tow at the table. Bacon, soy sauce and spices add lively flavor.—Dorothy Pritchett, Wills Point, Texas
Ingredients:
4 bacon strips
2 bone-in chicken breast halves with skin (8 ounces each)
3/4 cup soy sauce
6 tablespoons sugar
3 garlic cloves, minced
2-1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon paprika
3 to 4 drops hot pepper sauce
Directions:
1. Wrap two bacon strips around each chicken breast; place skin side down in a shallow glass baking dish and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour 2/3 cup marinade over chicken. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
3. Drain and discard marinade. Bake at 325° for 50-60 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Yield: 2 servings.
