Ingredients:
– 2 chicken breasts
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 4 slices of bacon
– 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 garlic clove, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
1. Start by cooking the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once done, remove the bacon and let it drain on a paper towel. Keep about 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease in the pan for flavor.
2. In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add olive oil and warm it up. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them in the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through.
3. Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the skillet and set it aside to rest.
4. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Dijon mustard. Mix well and let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
6. Crumble the cooked bacon and add it back into the sauce. Stir to combine.
7. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it well with the creamy mustard-bacon sauce.
8. Allow it to cook for another 2 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
