HOW TO MAKE BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN SKEWERS
To make these Bacon Wrapped Chicken Skewers, you start by preheating your oven to 400 F. Line a lipped baking pan with tin foil, then place a wire rack on top. Slice the chicken into long 1 inch wide strips. Skewer the chicken, then wrap each one with one piece of bacon. Brush the skewers with the bbq sauce then place them onto the wire rack. Bake for 30 – 35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.
On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Recipe Notes:
- If using wooden skewers, you’ll need to soak the skewers in water before using.
- When wrapping the chicken skewers with bacon… it’s best to not over lap the bacon (as much as possible). This will help the bacon cook evenly and get it nice and crispy.
- If you can’t find low carb bbq sauce, you can either make a homemade one or just skip it altogether.
- This recipe can also be made on a bbq on the lowest setting, instead of using the oven.
- The bacon wrapped chicken can also be made without the skewer. Just place the bacon wrapped chicken onto the wire rack the same way.
- You can skip the wire rack if needed but you’ll need to turn the skewers more often and you’ll also want to pour off the excess grease a few times.
