Plus, there’s really no reason to be afraid of the little extra fat that comes with eating these cuts of chicken. Honestly, one of the main things we LOVE about the paleo lifestyle is that we NEVER count calories or give too much worry to eating things like bacon and a little chicken skin. As long as our diet is based on the paleo principles and full of a variety of vegetables and healthy proteins, we know that some fat is an integral part of our diet and helps to keep us feeling full and satiated longer. Read more here about why fat is an essential component to a healthy diet. And really, don’t you just want to dig in and eat that? For this recipe you’ll get a full meal in one pan with some squash, brussels sprouts and crispy chicken that is seasoned to perfection. The crispy skin is oh so tasty and finger-lickin’ good. Just rub the chicken down with the seasoning blend and throw it in the cast iron skillet to crisp up for 5 minutes on each side. Then, toss in the squash and brussels sprouts and bake it for 30 minutes and you are good to go!
