Step 1

Preheat oven to 400˚F.

Step 2

Place an oven-safe rack inside a foil lined rimmed baking sheet (for easy cleanup).

Step 3

Season chicken thighs with kosher salt and pepper. (Keep in mind that bacon is salty, so take care to not over season with salt.)

Step 4

Wrap each chicken thigh with a slice of bacon and place on rack in baking sheet (keeping the thighs as flat as possible and taking care to minimize how much the bacon strip overlaps itself). Bake 25 to 35 minutes, or until bacon is crisp to your liking and an instant read thermometer reads 165˚F in the center of thighs. Serve.
