This is a recipe of mine that I make time-to-time when I want something basic or just don't have another recipe in mind to try out. For the Crusted Chicken I have also used just almonds and a mixture of almonds and pistachios; both options turned out great. The amounts of Dijon Mustard and Honey that I use vary and if I run out of the mix before I'm done coating the chicken, I'll just add a tiny bit more of each. For the Roasted Brussels I like cooking the bacon first and leaving the fat behind for the Brussels to bake in. This is one of my absolute favorite side dishes! I have made this for several cook outs or gatherings and it always gets eaten. You really can't go wrong with the Brussels and bacon combo. Try this one out!

Pistachio-Crusted Chicken over Roasted Brussels with Bacon
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup pistachios, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup Dijon Mustard (I use Woodstock Organic Dijon Mustard, found at local grocery store)
  • 3 boneless skinless Chicken Breasts, halved (2lbs)
  • 2 Tbsp Raw Honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 425° F, and line a cookie sheet with olive oil.
  2. In a small food processor, add the pistachios and chop fine. Pour into small bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together mustard and honey.
  4. Coat each piece of chicken with the mustard and honey mixture, then cover in the chopped pistachios.
  5. Place coated chicken breasts on cookie sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

Roasted Brussels with Bacon
Ingredients:
  • 2lb Brussels, shaved 
  • 6 strips of Bacon
  • 1 Tbsp Raw Honey
  • Salt to taste
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 425° F, and line a cookie sheet with bacon strips.
  2. Cook bacon for 8 minutes, flip strips over, and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes.
  3. In a food processor, add the Brussels and shred to liking. 
  4. Once bacon is cooked, remove from cookie sheet and set aside. Place shaved Brussels on the cookie sheet with leftover bacon fat. Add honey and salt and mix around.
  5. Bake Brussels for 10 minutes, take them out and mix around, then bake for another 10 minutes. Keep an eye on these to make sure they do not burn!
  6. Cut the cooked bacon into bite size pieces and mix into the Brussels. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  7. Enjoy!
