Mince the raw jalapeño, removing seeds for a milder flavor, and slice the avocado into thin wedges.
In a medium bowl, combine the raw ground chicken with the garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, and minced jalapeño.
Divide the chicken mixture into two equal portions and form them into small, round slider patties.
Press a small piece of the cheddar cheese into the center of each patty and fold the meat over to completely seal the cheese inside.
Wrap one slice of turkey bacon tightly around each chicken patty, securing the ends with a toothpick if needed.
Heat the avocado oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Place the sliders in the skillet and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, ensuring the bacon becomes crispy and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the sliders from the pan and let them rest for 2 minutes.
Place each slider into a butter lettuce leaf and top with the fresh avocado slices before serving.
