Step-by-Step Instructions for Chicken Bacon Wrap
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  3. Combine garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper and rub the mixture on each side of the chicken.
  4. Mix softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese until well combined, then spread evenly on one side of each chicken breast.
  5. Roll up each chicken breast tightly starting from the edge with the filling, and wrap with two slices of bacon.
  6. Sear the wraps in an oven-safe skillet with heated olive oil over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes per side.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  8. Once baked, let the wraps rest for about 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve.
