Haven't seemed to find anything on this.  Skinless breast.  Time and temp? 
 
I'd do a bacon weave or blanket if it was going to be skinless.  Temp?  Maybe 165ish.  165 is the recommended temp via food safety guidelines. 

I've never done just a chicken breast, although I've done pheasant breasts and the bacon is a must. 
 
I think a brine would be a must on a skinless chicken breast, unless you want a dry one.  It's amazing what a good brine will do for certain meats!  Time?....depends on the size, of course, but you want an internal of 165. 
 
Thanks fellas.  I did put them in a simple brine.  I had not thought about the bacon.  Excellent idea.  I will do that.
 
Inject them.  Once injected (and you have to do this slowly), coat with oil, butter whatever and bacon.  They won't take but about 2 hours at 250 to get up to temp and be still juicy.
