Instructions
- Heat one tablespoon of the 2 tablespoons Avocado Oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound Boneless skinless chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces) and cook until golden brown. Season with a pinch of Salt and pepper, to taste, then set aside on a plate.
- Add remaining oil and sauté the 2 pounds Brussels Sprouts until it starts to brown.
- Meanwhile in a small bowl, whisk 1 Cup Milk of choice, 2-3 Garlic Cloves (minced), 1 tablespoon Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice, a pinch of salt & pepper, and 1 tablespoon Cornstarch, until well combined.
- Pour the milk mixture over the Brussels sprouts and stir to deglaze the pan. Lower the heat and simmer until sauce thickens and sprouts are tender.
- Return the chicken back to the pan and stir in the ¼ Cup Shredded Cheese. Continue to cook until everything is hot and melty.
- Take off the heat and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Chopped Parsley and ground pepper if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use any other veggies like broccoli or green beans in place of Brussels sprouts if you like.
- Do not overcook the chicken, or they will be dry and rubbery.
- Any other oil would work instead of avocado oil.
- Store leftovers in a container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
