Espetinho de Frango com Bacon combines the mildness of chicken with the smoky, salty richness of bacon. The marinade adds further complexity, creating a savory and slightly sweet profile.
The primary flavors are savory and smoky, coming from the bacon and grilled chicken. The marinade typically includes garlic, onion, herbs (like parsley or chives), and often a touch of sweetness from honey, brown sugar, or even a soda like Guarana. The grilling process imparts a char and smoky depth to the overall flavor. The chicken remains tender, while the bacon crisps, offering a textural contrast.

Marinating is Key
Marinating the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or ideally longer, allows the flavors to penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender espetinho. Overnight marination is often best.
Bacon Thickness Matters
Use bacon that is not too thin, as it can easily burn and disintegrate during grilling. A medium thickness is ideal for wrapping around the chicken and providing a crispy texture.
Even Grilling
Rotate the skewers frequently during grilling to ensure even cooking and prevent burning. Keep the heat at a medium level to allow the chicken to cook through without the bacon becoming overly charred.
Use Good Quality Bacon
Flavor and texture is highly improved by using good quality bacon instead of the cheapest option available.
