Chicken with Bacony Brussels Sprouts
What you need:
- Bacon grease [we keep a jar in the fridge]
- Bacon bits
- 2 to 3 chicken breasts, butterflied
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1/2 lb. brussels sprouts, trimmed and chopped
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Directions:
- Add 1 Tbsp. bacon grease into a skillet. Let heat up.
- Meanwhile, season chicken with salt and pepper. Place in skillet and cook until browned on each side - you'll finish cooking it later. Remove from skillet.
- Add olive oil to skillet and let heat up. Add onion plus a little salt and pepper. Cook until softened about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the brussels sprouts and cook for one more minute.
- Add chicken, scooting the veggies to the sides of it and pour in the chicken broth.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes or until chicken is done and brussels are tender.
- Top with bacon bits and serve!
