Preheat the oven:
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish or oven-safe skillet lightly with olive oil.
Prepare the marinade:
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, minced garlic, black pepper, and soy sauce (if using).
Season the chicken:
Lightly sprinkle salt on both sides of the chicken breasts.
Cook the bacon:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Sear the chicken:
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat in the skillet. Over medium-high heat, sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Bake the chicken:
Pour the maple garlic marinade over the seared chicken in the skillet, then crumble the crispy bacon on top. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Finish and serve:
Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven. Drizzle the chicken with the remaining sauce from the skillet and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy this sweet and savory treat!
