Description

Ingredients

• 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 2 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 4 slices naturally smoked bacon
• 1 cup half and half cream
• 1/8 tsp salt

Directions

• Cook bacon in a skillet on low until desired crispness is reached. Remove from pan and chop.
• In the same skillet (do NOT remove bacon grease,) add chicken, season with Italian seasoning, and brown on both sides until nearly cooked through (approximately 5 - 7 minutes per side.)
• Remove chicken and set aside on a plate.
• In the same skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and add sliced mushrooms. Cook on medium heat for 3 minutes, flipping once. We want to get the mushrooms nice and caramelized.
• Add cream, salt, and cooked bacon back to the skillet. Bring to a boil, stir, and immediately reduce to simmer. Add the chicken and let it all simmer until chicken is completely cooked through.
• Place chicken on your plate and spoon some sauce overtop! Goes great with mashed cauliflower.
