Prep Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 20 mins Serves: 4

In this one-pan, 30-minute meal, juicy, pan seared chicken breasts and garlic rosemary broth are simmered in a creamy sauce, then topped with bacon crumbles.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Smart Chicken Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, halved (cut into 4 pieces)

  • 3 slices of bacon

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 1/3 cup all purpose flour for dredging

  • 1/2 cup Chicken Bone Broth

  • 2 Tablespoon salted butter

  • 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese grated (not shredded)

Directions

Place the bacon in the pan, then place it over medium heat. Cook the bacon until it is crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan but leave the grease in there. Slice the chicken breasts in half to produce 4 chicken filets. Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper on the chicken breasts, then dredge it in the flour. Place the chicken in the pan and sear on each side for 4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and place it on a plate to the side. Pour the chicken bone broth into the pan and allow it to reduce by half (about 3 minutes). Add the butter to the pan and stir until it is melted. Pour the heavy cream into the pan and bring it to a simmer. Add the parmesan cheese and stir until it has melted. Add the chicken breasts and any juices into the pan. Allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce for 3 minutes. Crumble the bacon over the chicken and sauce. Serve with your favorite sides. Mangia!
