Ingredients:
4-6 Chicken Breasts (if they’re large – cut in half)
1/2-1 Cup Italian Vinaigrette (or any oil based salad dressing)
Black Pepper
Minced Fresh Garlic
6-8 Chopped Yukon Gold, Red, or Purple Potatoes
1/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (roughly) – add more if needed
Seasonings (1/2 tsp each): salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ranch seasoning
1/4 Cup Grated Parmesan
4-5 Cups Chopped/Quartered Brussel Sprouts
2TBS – 1/4 Cup Olive Oil (roughly) – add more if needed
Seasonings: 1/4 tsp red pepper flake, 1 tsp cracked black pepper, 1 tsp salt
1-3 TBS Balsamic Vinegar
2/4 Cup Chopped Partially Cooked Bacon (80% cooked)
Directions:
-Marinate chicken breasts with italian dressing, pepper, and minced garlic for 30 minutes.
-While chicken marinates, pre-heat oven to 400 and chop potatoes. Coat potatoes in olive oil, seasonings, and parmesan. Toss in large bowl until evening coated.
-Line a large baking sheet with parchment and spread potatoes evenly along sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes, flipping 1-2 times to roast evenly.
-Chop and quarter washed brussel sprouts and add to a large bowl with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and seasonings. Toss until evenly coated. Line a slightly smaller baking sheet with parchment and spread brussel sprouts evenly along parchment. Top with bacon and bake for 15-20 minutes – tossing 1-2 times to roast evenly.
-To cook chicken with an even sear, pre-heat a large skillet on med to high heat with a small amount of leftover bacon fat or olive oil.If you’re cooking with gas this should take 2-3 minutes. If you’re cooking with electric it could take up to 5 minutes. Test a small piece of chicken by quickly touching an end to the pan, it should sizzle loudly. Continue to cook chicken breasts on medium to high heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through. When you notice the pan to start drying out (generally when you’re ready to flip), add a drizzle of vinaigrette to the pan and finish cooking chicken.
