Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices bacon
- 4 large leaves romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 whole avocado
- 10 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole lemon
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grilling pan to medium-high heat.
Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create four thin cutlets. Season them with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the grill or grilling pan. Place the chicken cutlets on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and let them rest.
While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and then slice the flesh. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
In a small bowl, mix the juice of one lemon with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to create a simple dressing.
Lay out the large romaine lettuce leaves. Place a chicken cutlet on each leaf, followed by a slice of bacon, a few slices of avocado, and a handful of cherry tomatoes.
Drizzle the lemon-olive oil dressing over the top of each wrap. Carefully roll the lettuce leaf over the fillings to form a wrap. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Chicken and Bacon Wrap.
