Ingredients

8 boneless skinless chicken thighs (3 to 4 oz each)
3 slices bacon, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
2 small onions, sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 bag (8 oz) fresh baby spinach leaves (6 cups)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel

Steps:

In 12-inch skillet, cook chicken and bacon over medium-high heat 5 minutes, turning chicken once.
Stir in carrots, onions, garlic and broth. Cook uncovered 15 to 20 minutes, turning chicken and stirring frequently, until juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut (at least 165°F) and vegetables are tender.
