Cooking Steps
• Trim ends of asparagus and halve. • Thinly slice radish. • Thinly slice apple into sticks. • In a bowl, combine Nan's special seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh, turning to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook asparagus until tender, 5-6 minutes. Add a dash of water to pan to help asparagus cook. Transfer to a large bowl. • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 14-16 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, add the honey and turn to coat.
TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
