Cooking Steps

Roast bacon and chicken
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. 
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce.
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange bacon in a single layer. 
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 6-10 min, until bacon is crisp and cooked through.** Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange on an unlined baking sheet. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top. Roast in the bottom of the oven for 16-18 min, until golden and cooked through.**
Prep and cook veggies
2
  • Cut cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
  • Remove any brown spots from potatoes, then peel and cut into 1-inch pieces. 
  • To the boiling water, add cauliflower and potatoes.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 6-8 min, until tender-crisp.
  • Meanwhile, peel, then finely chop shallot. 
  • Halve tomatoes. 
  • Thinly slice chives.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) cooking water from potatoes and cauliflower. Drain and return veggies to the same pot, off heat.  
Make sauce
3
  • In a small pot, heat 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) butter over medium-high.
  • When butter is melted, add shallots. Cook for 1 min, until softened. 
  • Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over top. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until combined.
  • Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup (1 cup) milk, reserved cooking water and half the cheese.
  • Cook for 1-2 min, whisking often, until smooth and slightly thickened. Remove from heat, then add Dijon and half the chives. Whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Bake gratin
4
  • Cut roasted chicken into 1-inch pieces.
  • In an 8x8-inch baking dish (9x13-inch for 4 servings), add sauce mixture, chicken, cauliflower and potatoes, then toss to coat. 
  • Crumble bacon over top, then sprinkle crispy shallots and remaining cheese over top.
  • Bake in the top of the oven for 8-12 min, until cheese is melted and topping is crisp.
Make salad
5
  • To a large bowl, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, vinegar and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Whisk to combine. 
  • Add spring mix and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide salad and bacon-cauliflower gratin between plates. 
  • Sprinkle remaining chives over top.

If you've opted to add chicken breast, pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange on an unlined baking sheet. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top. Roast in the bottom of the oven for 16-18 min, until golden and cooked through.**
