How to Make Bacon Wrapped Grilled Chicken

  1. In a large ziplock bag, whisk together ½ cup teriyaki sauce, ¼ cup vermouth, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  2. Add 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) to the bag and ensure they are fully coated in the teriyaki mixture.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
  4. Prepare your grill for medium-high heat (approximately 375-400°F).
  5. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
  6. Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Wrap each chicken breast with 2-3 slices of bacon, completely covering the chicken and securing with toothpicks.
  7. Grill chicken for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the bacon is crispy.
  8. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
