Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir chicken in the hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and place on a plate.

  2. Cook and stir sweet potato in the same skillet over medium heat until slightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes, return chicken to the skillet. Add whiskey, sage, pear, and water, stir well. Partially cover skillet, lower heat to medium-low, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes.

  3. Remove lid and sprinkle spinach over the chicken-sweet potato mixture, cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes. Stir in hazelnuts, season with salt and black pepper.
