BACON RANCH CHICKEN SALAD
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL RECIPE BY SUZANNE FROM WWW.KETOKARMA.COM
PREP TIME: 10 MINUTES • COOK TIME: 10 MINUTES • YIELD: 3 SERVINGS
5 slices bacon
1 1⁄2 cups cubed cooked chicken (about 12 ounces; see notes)
1⁄3 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons ranch dressing
1⁄2 stalk celery, chopped (optional)
Salt and pepper
6 butter lettuce leaves, for serving
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Notes: You can use precooked rotisserie chicken. If you prefer, you can spoon this chicken salad into avocado halves instead of lettuce leaves.
In a skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until crispy. Set aside on a paper towel–lined plate to cool.
Place the cooked chicken in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the mayonnaise, ranch dressing, and celery, if using.
Chop the bacon and add to the chicken mixture. Fold all the ingredients with a spoon until the chicken is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Divide the chicken salad evenly among the lettuce leaves. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
