Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat with 1 Tbsp olive oil. Add the onions and apples to the skillet.
Let the apples and onions cook down for a bit until they begin to become translucent. When they do, add juice of ½ lemon, ½ tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp nutmeg, salt, pepper, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp onion powder and mix thoroughly to help combine and let caramelize. Turn the heat down a notch or two and continue to cook down, stirring occasionally.
While the onions and apples continue to cook, heat another large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the remaining olive oil.
While the skillet heats up, salt and pepper your chicken and add them to the pan.
While the chicken begins to cook, add the rest of your spices and lemon juice on top of the chicken.
When the sides of the chicken begin to turn white, flip the chicken over.
Once the chicken has cooked through, layer some caramelized apples and onions on a plate, and top them off with some chicken.
