1. Heat oven to 375°F (190°C).Preheating ensures the bacon and chicken cook evenly from the start.
2. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.The wire rack allows air circulation so the bacon crisps instead of steaming.

2️⃣ Make the Coating

3. In a shallow dish, mix brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and optional cayenne.Break up any clumps in the brown sugar so the coating adheres smoothly.
