Time 30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon salt, divided
½ teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
6 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
6 strips bacon
12 stalks asparagus, ends trimmed
1 cup greek yogurt
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

Steps:

  • On a cutting board, slice chicken lengthwise into 1-inch (2 cm) thick slices. Take each slice of chicken and cut it in half lengthwise leaving about 1 inch (2 cm) uncut on one end of the strip.
  • Cut off part of the uncut end of the chicken so you do not have a thick spot in the middle of your longer chicken strip.
  • Place chicken strips in a bowl. Add ½ teaspoon salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice and mix to combine.
  • Transfer to the refrigerator.
  • Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • On a cutting board, slice each piece of bacon lengthwise creating 12 strips in total.
  • Wrap the cut strip of bacon around the asparagus.
  • Wrap a marinated chicken strip around the bacon-wrapped asparagus. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Place each bacon chicken asparagus twist on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Turn up the heat to broil, and broil for 10 minutes. Flip the twists over, and broil for an additional ten minutes.
  • In a bowl add the Greek yogurt parsley, dill, ½ teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Stir until well combined.
  • Remove bacon asparagus twists from baking sheet, and let cool. Serve with herb yogurt dipping sauce.
  • Enjoy!
