Easy One-pan Chicken Creole
"Smoky, zesty, and loaded with flavor, this Louisiana chicken creole recipe is an easy one-skillet meal for busy nights. Serve the chicken and veggies over rice, with a loaf of crusty bread for scooping, or with a crisp green salad. Why You’ll Love this Recipe: - Easy. This meal comes together with simple, easy-to-find, affordable ingredients. Best of all, it only requires a single skillet so you have fewer dishes to wash at the end! - Healthy. Sure there’s a little bit of bacon for flavor, but the base of this dish is lean protein and vegetables, making it a light-yet-satisfying option. You can pair the chicken and sauce with rice or bread to make it even more filling, enjoy it on its own with a salad for a lower-calorie option, or pair it with cauliflower rice for another nutritious grain-free side. - Full of Flavor. This chicken creole recipe is loaded with great flavor, thanks to the “holy trinity” of veggies — celery, bell pepper, and onion — as well as garlic, Creole seasoning, herbs, chili sauce, and smoky bacon. It’s sweet, savory, tangy, a little spicy, and full of satisfying texture."
