Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 12 oz Chicken Apple Sausage
  • 2 cups sweet potatoes diced (about 2-3 small to medium sweet potatoes)
  • 2 cups Brussels sprouts halved or quartered
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and mincied
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup dry quinoa rinsed
  • 3-4 cups chicken broth (I used chicken bone broth for added protein)
  • 4 oz goat cheese crumbled

Optional

  • 1 medium honeycrisp apple diced
  • 1 cup garbanzo beans drained and rinsed

Instructions
 

  • In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add sliced chicken sausage and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside in a bowl.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and sweet potatoes to the skillet. Cover and sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes become slightly crisped.
  • Remove the lid and add garlic, seasonings, rinsed quinoa, Brussels sprouts, and garbanzo beans into the pot. Cover the mixture with 3 cups of broth, stirring to combine evenly
  • Cover the skillet and simmer on medium-low heat. Cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. If liquid is absorbed before quinoa is fully cooked, add up to 1 additional cup of broth
  • Once quinoa is cooked and fluffy, stir in the kale, chicken sausage, goat cheese, and apple. Cook for 2-3 minutes, just until the kale wilts and cheese begins to melt
  • Remove from heat, serve immediately
