### Instructions:
**Step 1: Preheat Your Oven**
Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your skewers cook evenly and the bacon crisps up perfectly.
**Step 2: Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables**
Cut your chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes and set them aside. Then, prepare your vegetables by cutting the bell peppers, zucchini, and onion into evenly sized pieces. You want them to be similar in size to the chicken so that everything cooks evenly on the skewers.
**Step 3: Season the Chicken and Vegetables**
In a bowl, drizzle the olive oil over the chicken and vegetables. Then, sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together so that the chicken and vegetables are evenly coated with the seasonings.
**Step 4: Assemble the Skewers**
Take your skewers and begin layering them with the seasoned chicken and vegetables. Alternate between chicken cubes and vegetable pieces, making sure to leave a little space between each ingredient for even cooking. If you’re using wooden skewers, remember to soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to assembling to prevent them from burning in the oven.
**Step 5: Wrap with Bacon**
Cut the bacon slices in half, and then wrap each half around a skewer of chicken and vegetables. The bacon adds a crispy, smoky flavor to the skewers while keeping the chicken moist during baking.
**Step 6: Bake the Skewers**
Place the assembled skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a baking rack. Arrange them in a single layer, ensuring that the bacon is facing up to allow it to crisp properly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, the vegetables are tender, and the bacon is golden and crispy.
**Step 7: Garnish and Serve**
Once the skewers are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped herbs like parsley or thyme if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips for Perfect Skewers:
1. **Choose Vegetables Carefully:** Vegetables that cook at the same rate as chicken are ideal for skewers. Bell peppers, onions, zucchini, and mushrooms work perfectly. You can also add cherry tomatoes or even pineapple for a sweet twist.
