Directions

1 Soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Meanwhile, cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise to make 10 (about 1-inch) pieces. Cut onions into 2-inch pieces (30 pieces total). Cut bacon slices in half crosswise.
2 Heat gas or charcoal grill. Push 1 skewer through end of 1 bacon piece, then through middle of 1 chicken piece and back through other end of bacon piece; add 2 onion pieces, then repeat with another bacon piece and chicken piece. Place on large plate or tray. Repeat to make remaining kabobs.
3 Place kabobs on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 5 minutes. Turn kabobs; brush with half of the barbecue sauce. Cover; cook 5 minutes. Turn kabobs; brush with remaining sauce. Cover; cook about 1 minute longer or until chicken is no longer pink in center. If desired, serve with additional barbecue sauce for dipping.

Keep pieces of kabob at the tip of the skewer while threading to keep bacon tight.

Thinking of making these, but I have a question before I do, why use fully cooked bacon?

I just fixed this for a dinner tonight with some garlic smashed potatoes. It was delicious! Really easy recipe, too. I liked the spicier BBQ sauce but any sauce works just fine. The green onion makes a nice, fresh change in the texture and heavy flavor of the bacon. Really easy to make and it's a crowd pleaser.

Made these as one of several offerings at my husband's birthday bbq and these were gone before the ribs, steak kabobs, burgers and brats! People asked for more and have requested we make them again the next time we BBQ!
