Preparation Directions

Cook the Chicken
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken breast until fully cooked (about 7-8 minutes per side). Let it cool, then slice into strips.

Cook the Bacon
In the same skillet, cook the hardwood smoked bacon until crispy. Once done, remove and let drain on paper towels. Crumble when cool.

Prepare the Apples
Core and slice the crisp apples into thin wedges. For extra flavor, you can toss them lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
