Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Add the pancetta to the pan. Using a wooden spatula, occasionally stir the pancetta for 5 minutes until it browns. Add the chicken, salt, pepper, sage and optional cayenne pepper to the pan. Continue to stir occasionally for 5 minutes.

Add the maple syrup to the pan and stir for 3 minutes, until the syrup begins to caramelize. Add the green onions and stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Serve on rice or over lettuce with creamy maple Dijon dressing (recipe below).
