It's a perfect meal for those who are looking for a nutritious yet satisfying option. This recipe is easy to prepare and great for meal prep or a quick lunch.
Instructions:
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the turkey bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble into small pieces.
- Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper (optional).
- Using the same skillet, cook the chicken breast over medium heat until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), about 6-8 minutes on each side.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before chopping it into bite-sized pieces.
- Wash the tomato and dice it into small pieces.
- Rinse and shred the lettuce if not pre-shredded.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chopped chicken, diced tomato, shredded lettuce, low-fat cottage cheese, and crumbled turkey bacon.
- Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit.
- Scoop out some of the avocado flesh from each half to create a larger cavity for stuffing, and add the scooped-out avocado to the chicken salad mixture. Gently mix it in.
- Spoon the chicken salad mixture into the avocado halves, ensuring they are generously filled.
- Place the stuffed avocado halves on a plate.
- You can garnish with additional crumbled bacon or a sprinkle of chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tips:
- Cook the turkey bacon until crispy for a better texture contrast with the creamy avocado and cottage cheese.
- You can grill or pan-sear the chicken breasts to add a bit more flavor through caramelization.
- Use ripe but firm avocados so they hold up well when stuffed.
- Dice the tomato finely to distribute its flavor more evenly throughout the salad.
- If you prefer a bit more crunch, you can add finely chopped red onion or celery to the salad mixture.
This Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocado is not only nutritious but also bursting with flavor.
