Keto Bacon Wrapped Chicken Breasts Ingredients

– Chicken: I prefer to use chicken thights for this recipe, but you can use chicken breasts as well.

– Bacon: I enjoy smoked bacon for this chicken appetizer recipe. I think it has more flavor, but you can use whichever bacon you prefer. Do not use thick-cut bacon for this recipe.

– Garlic powder: Garlic powder gives a lot of flavor to this dish, but you could also use garlic salt if that’s all you have.

– Onion powder: Again, onion powder will add some great flavor, but you could also use onion salt.

– Ground cumin: This is a must-have spice in my opinion. It has a great smoky flavor that goes well with the bacon and chicken.

– Paprika: Smoked or sweet paprika are great choices for this recipe.

– Salt and pepper: Fresh sea salt and freshly ground pepper are my favorite.

This recipe can be made in the air fryer.

I have tested by making a version of bacon wrapped chicken air fryer and it was just as good.

I like to make a big batch and have it ready for my weekly meal prep.

You can serve this chicken with vegetable sides, add to salads, zoodles or simply alone.

If you have never tried chicken wrapped in bacon before, I recommend that you give this keto recipe a try because it’s delicious!
