Southern Living, March 2006






List of Ingredients



• 8 bacon slices
  
• 8 skinned and boned chicken thighs
  
• 1 cup cornmeal
  
• 1 Tbsp salt
  
• 1 tsp paprika
  
• 1 tsp black pepper
  






Instructions



1. Arrange bacon slices on paper towels on a microwave-safe plate in microwave oven. Top with paper towel. Microwave at HIGH 30 seconds to 1 minute, or just until bacon is limp and heated through (do not fully cook bacon). Wrap each chicken thigh with a piece of bacon; secure with a wooden pick, if desired.
   
   
2. Combine cornmeal and next 3 ingredients in a bowl. Dredge chicken in cornmeal mixture. Arrange on a wire rack coated with cooking spray in a lightly greased broiler or roasting pan.
   
   
3. Bake at 350° F for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until chicken is done.
