Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
Cut the chicken breast into approximately 1-inch cubes. You should get about 20 pieces.
In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
Add chicken cubes to the bowl and toss until they are all evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Cut each slice of bacon in half. Wrap each piece of chicken with a half slice of bacon, securing it with a toothpick.
Place the bacon-wrapped chicken bites on a lined baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced and not touching.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
