INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

1.5 cups Brussels sprouts

2 slices center-cut bacon

1 tbsp balsamic glaze

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half, then place them on the prepared baking sheet.

• 3

  Drizzle the sprouts with olive oil and sprinkle with half of the sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, tossing to coat evenly.

• 4

  Roast the sprouts for 20 to 25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until they are tender and the outer leaves are crispy and golden.

• 5

  While the sprouts roast, cook the chopped bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

• 6

  Season the chicken breast with the remaining salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then sear in the same skillet for 6 to 7 minutes per side until fully cooked.

• 7

  Slice the chicken into bite-sized strips and combine in a large bowl with the roasted sprouts and crispy bacon.

• 8

  Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the mixture and toss gently to ensure every piece is coated before serving warm.
