Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, honey, and lemon juice. Stir until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Add Bacon and Cheese

    During the last few minutes of grilling, place 2 slices of bacon on top of each chicken breast and top with a slice of Swiss cheese. Close the grill lid to allow the cheese to melt.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the grilled chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your grilled chicken topped with bacon and Swiss cheese!
