Ingredients
Scale
4 pieces of boneless, skinless chicken thighs
6 slices of bacon
1/2 cup of maple syrup
4 cloves of minced garlic
1/4 cup of soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
1 tablespoon of chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon of olive oil
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the maple syrup, minced garlic, soy sauce, black pepper, and chopped thyme. Whisk until well blended.
Place the chicken thighs in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour marinade over the chicken. Seal and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, ideally for 1 to 2 hours.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, leaving some fat in the skillet.
Add olive oil to the skillet and heat. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade) and add to the skillet. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden and reaches 165°F.
Pour reserved marinade over chicken and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until a glaze forms.
Crumble crispy bacon over the top before serving.
