Keto chicken BLT salad
Bacon, lettuce and tomato. A classic combination — but why stop there? Make it keto by adding lettuce, some tender pieces of chicken and a dollop of creamy aioli.
Prep time: 5 minutes
Yield: Makes 4 serving
Ingredients
Garlic mayonnaise
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- ½ tbsp garlic powder
BLT
- 8 oz. bacon
- 1 oz. butter
- 1 lb boneless chicken thighs
- salt and pepper
- 10 oz. Romaine lettuce
- 4 oz. cherry tomatoes, in halves
Directions
-
Mix mayonnaise and garlic powder in a small bowl and set aside.
-
Fry the bacon slices in butter until crispy. Remove and keep warm. Save the grease in the pan.
-
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and then cut each thigh into thirds. Fry in the same skillet as the bacon until golden brown and thoroughly cooked.
-
Rinse and chop the lettuce; be sure to use a clean cutting board and knife (different from the one used when handling the raw chicken).
-
Place the lettuce on a plate and top with chicken, bacon, tomatoes, and garlic mayo.
