Ingredients
- 4 lices bacon, chopped
- 1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 3/4 cup diced yellow onion
- 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced butternut squash
- 2 cups halved Brussels sprouts
- 1 teaspoon grated garlic
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 granny smith apple, diced
- Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 3 tablespoons toasted pecans, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Heat skillet over medium heat and add in the chopped bacon. Cook the bacon until crisp and remove with a slotted spoon onto plate lined with paper towels. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease and discard the rest.
- Turn the heat up to medium-high with the tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet. Add in the cubed chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken through, approximately 4-5 minutes, then remove onto the plate with the bacon.
- If needed add another 1-2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet, then add in the onion, butternut squash and Brussels sprouts. Season lightly with salt and pepper and sauté for approximately 10-12 minutes or until tender.
- Add in the garlic, poultry seasoning, cinnamon, apple. Stir together and cook for another minute.
- Add the chicken broth to the skillet and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen any brown bits.
- Add the chicken and bacon back into the skillet, along with the dijon mustard and maple syrup. Stir together and cook another 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens a bit. Taste for seasoning.
- Remove from the heat and top with the dried cranberries and chopped pecans.
Notes
- To make this recipe paleo, simply leave out the dijon (or use a paleo compliant homemade version) and make sure your dried cranberries aren't sweetened with sugar.
