Ingredients

• 2 pieces (approximately 8 oz each) Chicken breast
• 2 large Avocado
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
• 0.25 cup Red onion
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 slices Bacon
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cooking the chicken breasts. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from skillet and allow to cool.

Step 3

While the chicken is cooling, cook the bacon in the same skillet until crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat. Once cooled, crumble into small pieces.

Step 4

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocado until creamy.

Step 5

Add the mayonnaise and lemon juice to the mashed avocado, and mix until well combined.

Step 6

Chop the red onion finely and add it to the avocado mixture along with the chopped cilantro. Stir until the ingredients are well-incorporated.

Step 7

Once the chicken is cool to handle, chop it into bite-sized pieces and add them to the avocado mixture.

Step 8

Add the crumbled bacon to the salad and stir until everything is well combined. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary.

Step 9

Serve the Keto Creamy Avocado & Chicken Salad cold or at room temperature, and enjoy as a hearty low-carb meal.
