Autumn-inspired chicken thighs with apples and root veggies |
This recipe pairs seared chicken thighs with caramelized apples and oven-roasted seasonal vegetables. High in fiber and protein, and low in carbs, each serving contains a whopping 64 grams of protein, which is sure to keep you feeling full for hours after eating. |
Root vegetables — which include the onions and carrots in this recipe — offer a variety of health benefits. Onions can help prevent conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity, while carrots can help regulate appetite and reduce cholesterol levels. |
