Don’t worry about the calorie count for now, just surrender to this comforting dish when you’re in need of some culinary self-love. This recipe was, surprisingly, inspired by my vegetarian sister who couldn’t find a creamy bacon chicken recipe here. So, here we are, introducing a dish straight from the Salt & Lavender playbook that’s all set to win your hearts.
Ingredients:
– 6 strips of bacon, cut into small pieces
– 2 large chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise
– Flour for dredging
– 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder
– Pepper to taste
– 1/2 cup of chicken broth
– 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice
– 1 tablespoon of butter
– 1 cup of heavy/whipping cream
Instructions:
1. Cut the bacon into small pieces and fry in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy (about 10 mins). Once done, set it aside, leaving about 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat in the pan.
2. Prepare your chicken by cutting it in half lengthwise to get 4 smaller cutlets. Season them with garlic powder and pepper, then coat in flour.
3. Cook the chicken in the remaining bacon fat over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side until golden. Reduce heat if needed. Once cooked, set aside.
4. In the same pan, add chicken broth, lemon juice, and butter. Let it bubble until reduced by half (about 3-4 minutes).
5. Stir in the cream and once it starts to bubble, add the chicken and bacon back into the pan. Cook for another 5 minutes or so until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened to your preference.
