Ingredients

• ½ cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 8 slices bacon
• 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
• ½ head cauliflower florets
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• ½ medium head red cabbage, cut into wedges

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Combine broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage in a large bowl. Whisk olive oil, salt, and paprika together in a measuring cup and pour over vegetables. Gently stir until all of the vegetables are coated. Set aside.

Step 3

Combine chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder on a flat plate. Roll each chicken thigh in the spice mixture so that both sides are coated. Wrap 2 pieces of bacon around each thigh and place chicken in the center of the baking sheet.

Step 4

Stir vegetables one last time and scatter them around the chicken in an even layer.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
