Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 2 cups mixed greens (lettuce, spinach, or your choice)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • ½ cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • ¼ cup ranch dressing (keto-friendly)

Seasonings and Cooking Essentials

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Bacon: Fry the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until golden and crispy. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess grease, then crumble into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in the same skillet and cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and juicy. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips or cubes.
  3. Assemble the Base: Place a generous handful of mixed greens in each bowl. Top with halved cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, and shredded cheese if using.
  4. Add Chicken and Bacon: Layer sliced chicken evenly over the greens, then sprinkle with crispy bacon pieces for added crunch.
  5. Drizzle with Ranch Dressing: Finish with a hearty drizzle of your favorite keto-friendly ranch dressing. Toss gently if desired or leave on top for presentation.

Notes

  • Use room temperature chicken after cooking for juicier texture.
  • Choose full-fat ranch dressing for best keto macros and richer flavor.
  • Cook bacon and chicken ahead to streamline bowl assembly.
  • Avoid overloading greens for balanced flavor and texture.
  • Keep bacon crispy and avocado creamy for enjoyable texture contrast.
