Bacon Guacamole Chicken Bombs

By Tasty36 min🍽 8 servings

Bacon Guacamole Chicken Bombs are a flavor explosion in every bite! Juicy chicken breasts are stuffed with creamy guacamole, then wrapped in bacon and seared then baked to perfection.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Using a knife, cut around the pit of each avocado, separating the halves from each other. Remove the pits and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, combine the avocado, onion, tomato, cilantro, salt, and lime juice. Mash and stir with a fork until there are no large chunks of avocado left.

  4. 4

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on all sides. Slice chicken breasts in half crosswise.

  5. 5

    Cut a slit in the center of each half to make a pocket. Take a heaping spoonful of the guacamole and pack it into the pocket. Pinch the edges closed.

  6. 6

    Wrap each chicken breast with 2 strips of bacon, making sure the ends of the bacon all end up on the same side of the chicken.

  7. 7

    Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Sear the bacon-wrapped chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remember to sear the sides of the chicken as well.

  8. 8

    Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 10 minutes, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Serve immediately.

  9. 9

    Enjoy!
