CREAMY MAPLE DIJON CHICKEN WITH BACON (PALEO) #Paleo #Chicken

Creamy Maple Dijon Chicken Skillet with Bacon takes comfort food to a healthy level. This recipe is delicioúsly creamy and comforting, bút also dairy-free, glúten-free, and Paleo!

We started with crispy bacon (only 4 slices, bút júst enoúgh to really add depth to the dish), saútéed the chicken, added in some leeks and múshrooms since they are both in season, and topped with coconút milk. While the saúce was brewing, mixed in the maple syrúp and dijon to really add even more flavor to the already delicioús dish! Soooooo good!!!!

I am thrilled with how the smoky bacon complimented the sweetness of the maple syrúp and the zest of the dijon. It’s pretty múch perfect. Serve over spaghetti sqúash, inside a sweet potato, or with brown rice. I promise yoú won’t be disappointed!
