Keto Bacon Wrapped Chicken Ingredients:
- 4 thawed Chicken Breasts
- 1/2 lb uncooked Bacon
- 3/4 c. Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 3/4 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt (to taste)
- 1 tsp Pepper (to taste)
- Scallions
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- In a medium sized bowl, add your spices and chicken. Toss until seasoned.
- Using the bacon, tightly wrap the chicken in a piece or two of bacon using a toothpick to secure as needed.
- Place chicken on a parchment paper lined baking sheet (our favorite is the Nordic Ware), and sprinkle with the shredded cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked and bacon is crispy.
Serving:
Once your chicken is out of the oven, it is ready to eat!
Sometimes we like to mix it up sometimes and top it with sliced scallions, bacon bits, or by adding some hot sauce or sour cream. The extra kick of flavor adds a dash of variety to the dish, making it even more difficult to say no to.
