Why You’ll Love This Bowl

This is not your sad desk-lunch BLT.
This BLT Power Bowl is hearty, fresh, and totally satisfying—loaded with crispy bacon, juicy chicken, whole grains, and a creamy garlic-lemon dressing that ties it all together. It’s the kind of meal that feels indulgent but leaves you energized instead of ready for a nap.

Perfect for busy weeknights, meal prep, or when you want something fresh that still brings the flavor.


Ingredients

For the Bowl:

  • 6 slices bacon

  • 2 chicken breasts

  • 6 Tbsp + 1 tsp Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil, divided

  • 4 Tbsp Meyer Lemon White Barrel Aged Balsamic, divided

  • 4 tsp Parmesan Asiago Dipper & Seasoning, divided

  • 1 ½ tsp Roasted Garlic Infused Sea Salt, divided

  • 1 head green leaf lettuce, chopped

  • 1 cup cooked grain (farro, rice, or quinoa)

  • 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, sliced

  • ½ avocado, sliced

  • ¼ cup pepper jack cheese, shredded or crumbled

For the Creamy Garlic Lemon Dressing:

  • 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt

  • Remaining Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil

  • Remaining Meyer Lemon White Barrel Aged Balsamic

  • Remaining Parmesan Asiago Dipper & Seasoning

  • Remaining Roasted Garlic Infused Sea Salt


Directions

  1. Cook the Bacon
    Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out the bacon.
    Bake for about 30 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy.
    Transfer to paper towels to drain, then chop.

  2. Marinate the Chicken
    Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces and place in a bowl.
    Toss with 2 Tbsp Caramelized Garlic Olive Oil, 2 Tbsp Meyer Lemon Balsamic, 2 tsp Parmesan Asiago Seasoning, and 1 tsp Roasted Garlic Sea Salt.
    Let marinate for at least 1 hour (up to 6 hours for extra flavor).

  3. Cook the Chicken
    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tsp Caramelized Garlic Olive Oil.
    Cook chicken for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and lightly golden.

  4. Make the Dressing
    In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, remaining 4 Tbsp Caramelized Garlic Olive Oil, 2 Tbsp Meyer Lemon Balsamic, 2 tsp Parmesan Asiago Seasoning, and ½ tsp Roasted Garlic Sea Salt until smooth and creamy.

  5. Assemble the Bowl
    Start with a base of lettuce, then layer on grains, chicken, bacon, tomatoes, avocado, and cheese.
    Drizzle generously with the creamy garlic lemon dressing.

  6. Dig In
    Grab a fork and enjoy every bite.
