Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 ripe avocados sliced
  • 8 slices uncured nitrate-free bacon
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika for extra smokiness
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for a crispy bacon exterior.
  • Season the chicken breasts with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
  • Place a few slices of avocado on each chicken breast. Carefully wrap each chicken breast with 2 slices of bacon, securing them with toothpicks if necessary to keep the bacon in place.
  • Lightly brush the bacon-wrapped chicken with melted coconut oil.
  • Arrange the bacon-wrapped chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the toothpicks from the chicken if used. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
