Introduction:
Prepare for a rich and satisfying meal that combines the tender juiciness of chicken with the decadent flavors of a creamy, bacon-infused sauce.
Preparation:
- Cook the Bacon:
- In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet for added flavor.
- Brown the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet with bacon fat and sear on both sides until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté Aromatics:
- In the same skillet, add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
- Make the Sauce:
- Sprinkle flour over the onions and garlic, stir to coat (if using). Slowly pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer and let the sauce thicken slightly. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Combine and Cook:
- Return the chicken and bacon to the skillet. Simmer everything together for another 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is creamy.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle chopped parsley over the chicken before serving to add color and freshness.
