Step 1

Use a sharp knife to slice the bacon into strips. Add the bacon to a pan heated over medium heat. Cook the bacon until crisp and then use a slotted spoon to remove it from the pan. Let it drain on paper towels to remove any excess grease.

Step 2

Season each chicken breast liberally with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add 1 tablespoon of olive or avocado oil to a pan heated over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts to the hot pan and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side until the chicken is browned and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the pan and let cool.

Step 3

Chop the romaine lettuce, slice the tomatoes, dice the avocado, and slice the green onion. Add everything to a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Make the honey mustard dressing by adding all of the dressing ingredients to a food processor or high-powered blender. Blend until creamy and smooth.

Step 5

Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add it to the mixing bowl. Then, add the bacon strips.

Step 6

Drizzle a few tablespoons of dressing over the salad and use a pair of kitchen tongs to toss the salad until well combined.

Step 7

Serve with extra dressing, salt, and pepper on the side and enjoy!
