Instructions
- Add the oil to a large heavy bottomed skillet, such as cast iron, and heat over medium heat.
- Season the chicken with cumin, paprika, and garlic salt on all sides.
- Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 6 minutes per side or until the chicken is cooked through. Turn off the heat, but leave the chicken in the pan.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the guacamole. Add the avocado, red onion, cilantro, cumin, salt, and lime juice to a small bowl and mash together with a fork until the guacamole is as smooth as you'd like.
- Spoon the guacamole evenly over each chicken breast.
- Break the bacon pieces in half and lay 2 halves on each chicken breast. Sprinkle with the cheese.
- Cover the pan with a lid and let set for 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Serve hot.
