Definitely a cheat day meal🥓✨

Bacon wrapped chicken✨ This is one of my first entrees I learned how to make once I moved out of my parents house about 3 years ago! My husband and I definitely love this one, with some simple ingredients you can make a delicious dinner that taste like you took hours on it🤤

We love to pair this dish with some veggies like asparagus, potatoes or a salad. Since this meal definitely isn’t the healthiest I like to add a veggie for the side!
