Description

Ingredients

• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 8 slices sugar free (for Whole30), nitrate free bacon
• ½ cup homemade mayo or Paleo friendly mayo from Primal Kitchen (made with avocado oil)
• 2 scallions (green onions), thinly sliced
• ½ tsp garlic powder - optional, omit if following Low FODMAP
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

• Take your bacon and chop into bite size pieces. Brown the bacon in a large saute pan over med-hi heat until crisp.
• Remove bacon from pan and set aside to drain on paper towels, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
• Pound the chicken breasts to ½ inch thickness or cut them in half so each piece is ½ inch thick.
• Turn the heat down to med. Sprinkle the chicken breasts with garlic (if using), salt and pepper and put in the pan with bacon fat. Cook about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the inside is no longer pink.
• Put the chicken in a large bowl, cover and refrigerate until cool. If you havent made your mayo yet, now is the time!
• When the chicken has cooled down, chop roughly into bite size pieces, and in a large bowl, toss together with the bacon, scallions, and mayo. Mix to fully combine.
• Taste and add salt/pepper if needed. Serve right away or snap a pic for Instagram before you shove the entire bowl in your face. Oh yes, you will!
