Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven safe rack on top. Drain the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside. Mix together the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and jalapeno; set aside. Mix together the barbecue sauce and paprika; set aside.
Cut the breasts into four tenders and then cut those in half, for a total of about 8 slices per breast. Place the strips between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them thin. Add a thin layer of the cheese filling to each strip and roll the chicken up. Brush the chicken with a dab of barbecue sauce. Precook the bacon to render fat, but not until crisp. Place chicken onto a strip of bacon and completely wrap the chicken. To roll, I set the chicken with the cut side down on the bacon first, rolled it up halfway, then turned and finish rolling, to make a package fully covering the chicken.
Dab the bacon with a bit more barbecue sauce, place onto the baking rack and sprinkle tops with a little bit of brown sugar. Bake at 400 degrees F, for 20 minutes, turn, cook 10 minutes longer, turn. Turn on broiler, place under broiler, with the door ajar, for about 2 - 3 minutes. Can also be cooked on an inside grill or outside grill, using indirect heat. Secure bacon with pre-soaked toothpicks if grilling.
