Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2
Mix brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Rub 1/2 spice mix over chicken breasts.
3
Wrap each breast with 2 to 4 slices bacon, depending on size. Place in a baking dish and sprinkle with remaining spice mix.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crisp, chicken is no longer pink in center, and juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
5
Serve topped with parsley.
