Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Begin by seasoning the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and your choice of spices like garlic powder and paprika.
- Cook the Chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil and sear the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they’re cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Brown the Beef: In the same skillet, add the ground beef. Cook it over medium heat until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Add Bacon: Chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces and add it to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until crispy.
- Incorporate Vegetables: Toss in diced bell peppers and onions. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they’re softened.
- Mix in BBQ Sauce: Pour in your low-carb BBQ sauce, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Let it simmer for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Shred the Chicken: While the mixture simmers, shred the cooked chicken thighs with two forks. Once shredded, add it back into the skillet and mix everything together.
- Prepare Bowls: Serve the BBQ chicken beef bacon mixture in bowls and top with your choice of cheese. You can microwave for a minute to melt the cheese if desired.
- Garnish: For an extra touch, add sliced green onions or fresh cilantro on top before serving.
