Ingredients
For the chicken:
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 Head of garlic
- 2 chicken breasts (4oz each)
- 2 lices Whole30 compliant bacon
For the salsa:
- 1/2 An avocado, diced
- 1/4 Cup tomato, diced
- 3 Tbsp red onion, diced
- 2 Tbsps green onion, sliced
- 1 tsp white wine vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel away the extra, papery skin from the garlic and cut off the end, leaving the garlic head intact, but the tips exposed.
- Drizzle with the olive oil, rubbing it into the garlic, and wrap tightly. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the cloves are soft.
- Once the garlic is done, take it out of the tinfoil and squeeze half of cloves out of its skin and put them in a small bowl.
- Mash the garlic up into a paste, and spread it evenly on top of each chicken breast. Save the rest of the garlic for something else!
- Take one piece of bacon and wrap it around a chicken breast. Repeat with the additional breast.
- Place a cooling rack on top of a tinfoil-lined cookie sheet and place the chicken breasts on the cooling rack. Bake until the chicken is 165 degrees F and the bacon is crispy, about 25-30 mins. Then turn your oven to HIGH broil and cook until the bacon is very crispy 2-5 minutes. Watch closely as it can burn fast!
- While the chicken bakes, mix all the salsa ingredients and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- When the chicken is cooked, divide the avocado salsa evenly on top of each breast and DEVOUR!
