Before you start
- Oven-safe skillet
- Mixing bowl
- Instant-read thermometer
Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test.
Cook
- Wrap
Mix Cajun seasoning, cumin and garlic powder; rub both sides of chicken. Gently stretch the bacon without tearing, then wrap around the chicken. The original ingredient list uses twice as many bacon slices as chicken breasts; small breasts may need less.
- Cook
Sear wrapped chicken in a skillet over medium for 2–3 minutes per side. Bake at 350°F for about 20 minutes, until chicken reaches 165°F.
- Salsa
Rest chicken at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile mix tomatoes, avocado, green onions or cilantro, lime juice and salt and pepper. Serve salsa with the chicken.
Where your attention goes

First-cook checks
- The archived recipe does not include the publisher’s chicken and bacon footnotes.
- The archived recipe includes 8 bacon slices and avocado salsa; the current source page is unavailable.
- Ingredient quantities are scaled from 4 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.
- Adapted from Annie Holmes. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.
- The publisher’s headline time does not cover every step in the method; no complete elapsed-time estimate is reported.
- Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.
Leftovers
Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate.
