• 3 large collard leaves, stems removed, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup of hazelnuts, lightly toasted and crushed
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

1. Add coconut oil to a small pan and heat over medium heat. You can also use olive oil, but it doesn’t tolerate heat as well as coconut oil.
2. Add shredded chicken and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Heat until fully cooked.
3. Add apples and cook until soft, then transfer to a small plate.
4. Add collards and cook until wilted, then add chicken and apples back to the skillet.
