Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 slices Bacon strips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add fresh spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted.
Place the sautéed spinach evenly over the seared chicken breasts.
Top each chicken breast with two tomato slices.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tomatoes on each chicken breast.
Cook the bacon in a separate pan until crispy, then drain excess fat and place two strips on top of each chicken breast.
Transfer the skillet with the chicken to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Chicken Melt!
