Time 1h43m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
½ cup honey mustard dressing
¼ cup white wine
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 slices bacon
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 small shallots, chopped

3 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup shredded smoked provolone cheese
