Keto Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Chicken Bombs
These chicken bombs feature tender chicken breasts filled with ripe avocado, all wrapped in savory bacon. The recipe takes about 45 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted and mashed
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it horizontally, but not all the way through, to create a pocket.
- Stuff the Chicken: In a bowl, mix the mashed avocado with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Spoon the avocado mixture into each chicken breast pocket.
- Wrap with Bacon: Take two slices of bacon and wrap them around each stuffed chicken breast, securing the ends with toothpicks if necessary.
- Bake: Place the bacon-wrapped chicken bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired, and serve hot.
