Cut chicken into 1" cubes
Slice your thick cut bacon in half and line on a baking tray lined with parchment paper
Mix seasoning ingredients together, then run half onto the bacon strips
Roll 1 chicken cube up in each halved bacon strip
Rub the remaining seasoning overtop the wrapped chicken, flip over and coat the other sides as well
Bake at 350 for 25 minutes
Flip, and bake an addition 10-15 minutes. Optionally, broil 1-2 minutes per side, depending how thick your bacon is and how crispy you'd like it
Make your sauce
Whisk water and arrowroot together in a small bowl and set aside
Toast your red pepper flakes about 3 minutes in a small sauce pan
Add remaining ingredients, minus your starch mixture
Bring the mixture to a boil, and cook an additional 4 minutes, stirring regularly
Reduce the heat to low and add your starch mixture, whisking to combine
It will thicken as your stir, and will continue to thicken as it cools
Allow to cool before placing in a storage container and into the fridge.
Your sauce is good for up to 2 weeks in the fridge
