Creamy Bacon Honey Dijon Skillet Chicken
From: Kevin Lynch @ www.closetcooking.com/
Quick and easy chicken dinners are always welcome and this creamy bacon honey dijon chicken is the one that I am currently crushing on! It's such a nice and simple one-pan dish with a super tasty skillet sauce!
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 strips bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 pound boneless and skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup heavy/whipping cream
1 tablespoon grainy mustard
1 tablespoon cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
1 tablespoon white miso (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat and set aside.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste and cook in the bacon grease in the skillet over medium-high heat until cooked and lightly golden brown, about 3-5 minutes per side, before setting aside.
Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about a minute.
Add the chicken broth and deglaze the pan by scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan as the broth sizzles.
Add the honey, mustards, cream, vinegar and miso paste, mix well, add the chicken and bacon, bring to a simmer, reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce thickens a bit, about 5 minutes.
Option: Omit the bacon and use 1 tablespoon oil instead of the bacon grease.
Option: Replace some or all of the chicken broth with white wine.
Option: Add a diced onion and cook until golden brown after removing the chicken and before adding the garlic.
Option: Add hot sauce such as sriracha for some spicy heat!
Option: Add 6 ounces baby spinach at the end and let it wilt before removing from heat.
