Ingredients
- ¼ cup salted butter
- 4 chicken breasts medium-sized
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon all spice
- ½ cup Bacon crumbled
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup white cooking wine
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1 medium onion diced
- 16 ounces fresh mushrooms sliced
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Over medium heat, melt butter in a large pan.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- In a shallow bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, oregano, thyme and all spice. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the flour mixture for later. Dredge chicken through mixture then add to prepared pan.
- Brown chicken for 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate and set aside.
- Whisk in reserved flour.
- Then add crumbled bacon, heavy cream, broth, wine, and parmesan cheese. Stir to combine. Cook one minute until it begins to thicken.
- Add mushrooms and onions to the pan and cook 3 minutes, until tender.
- Reduce heat to medium low, add chicken breasts back to the pan and simmer covered for 20 minutes.
- Serve warm with fresh parsley.
Notes
- Storage: Store smothered chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.
- Store smothered chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.
- Use a meat mallet to pound, or slice your chicken breasts in half, if your chicken breasts are thicker than 1 inch. This will help reduce the cook time needed to reach safe minimum cooking temperature of 165F.
- Use fresh mushrooms for this recipe. I like to use baby bella mushrooms.
- I used packaged crumbled bacon from the salad toppings section at the grocery store, but you could cook and crumble your own before you start the chicken if you prefer.
