Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spritz a baking dish with non-stick spray or lightly oil a cast iron skillet.
Add all of the seasonings to a small bowl and season the chicken liberally on both sides.
Roll the chicken up tightly and wrap one piece of bacon around each chicken thigh.
Place chicken in the skillet, seam side down, and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165 degrees.
If needed, turn the oven to broil and broil the chicken for 1-2 minutes to crisp the bacon to your liking.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Notes
This chicken recipe is easily adaptable. We included other seasoning options in the blog post, but a favorite is to brush the chicken with sugar-free barbecue sauce 5 minutes before it's done cooking. Once the chicken is cooked through, broil for a minute or two to caramelize the sauce.Use a thin sliced bacon for best results.
