CREAMY BACON CHICKEN



Creamy Bacon Chicken image

This creamy bacon chicken recipe is a decadent and delicious dinner that's easy enough for a weeknight and tasty enough for company. It's ready in about 30 minutes!

Provided by Natasha Bull

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 strips bacon (cut into small pieces)
2 large chicken breasts (cut in half lengthwise)
Flour (for dredging)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pepper (to taste)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup heavy/whipping cream

Steps:

  • Cut the bacon up and add it to a skillet (I use kitchen shears to make this job quick). Fry it over medium-high heat until crispy (about 10 mins). Once the bacon is done, take it out of the pan and set it aside. Leave about 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat in the pan.
  • Meanwhile, prep your chicken (cut it in half lengthwise so you have 4 smaller cutlets). Sprinkle them with the garlic powder and pepper and then coat them in the flour.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet and cook it in the remaining bacon fat over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes/side or until it's golden. If it starts to splatter a lot, reduce the heat. Once the chicken is browned, take it out of the pan and set it aside.
  • Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and butter to the pan. Let it bubble until it's reduced by half (about 3-4 minutes).
  • 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 through and the sauce has reduced to your liking.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 1/2 gallons

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large (approximately 6 pounds) chicken
1 onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
Kosher salt
1/2 pound thick bacon, diced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
5 stalks celery, diced
2 medium Spanish onions, diced
2 medium russet or all-purpose potatoes, peeled and diced
8 ears fresh corn, removed from the cob
1 to 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
3 cups heavy cream
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To poach the chicken: Combine the chicken, onion, celery, carrot, garlic, thyme, pepper and a tablespoon of salt large pot. Add water to cover, at least 3 quarts. Bring the water to a simmer over medium heat, skimming occasionally. Skim, add more water if necessary to keep the chicken covered, and continue to gently simmer until the chicken is fully cooked (the juices from the thigh will run clear), about 40 minutes. Drain the chicken reserving the broth. Allow the chicken to cool then remove the meat from the bones. Discard the bones and refrigerate the meat until ready to make the chowder. Measure out 1 1/2 quarts of the broth and reserve for the chowder. Freeze or refrigerate any remaining broth until needed for another purpose.
  • To make the chowder: Heat the bacon and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook until the bacon fat is rendered and the meat firming but not yet crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the celery and onions. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally until the vegetables begin to soften, about 6 minutes. Add the potatoes, corn, and thyme. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are fully soft, about 8 additional minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth to the pot. Bring the broth to a simmer over medium-high heat. Turn down the heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the cream and reserved chicken. Return the chowder to a simmer, season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle into warm bowls and serve.

The Best Sour Cream and Bacon Chicken image

The most tender, best tasting chicken breasts ever. Delicious served over rice. Easy to double the recipe.

Provided by Nancy Sneed

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
6 strips bacon
1 jar dried beef

Steps:

  • Line the bottom of an 11X13 baking dish with the dried beef.
  • Wrap each chicken breast in a bacon strip and lay it on top of the beef.
  • Mix together the sour cream and soup and spoon it over the chicken.
  • Bake uncovered at 325 degrees for 1 hour and 30 minutes checking after an hour as time may vary.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality bacon and chicken. Look for thick-cut bacon that is not too fatty, and boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs.
  • Season the chicken well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the dish.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not overcooked. You want the bacon to add flavor to the dish, but you don't want it to be tough.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality chicken broth. This will help to give the dish a rich flavor.
  • Add the corn and cream cheese to the dish at the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent the corn from becoming overcooked and the cream cheese from curdling.
  • Serve the dish over rice or pasta. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables.

Conclusion:

This creamy chicken with bacon and corn is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve to guests. The combination of bacon, chicken, corn, and cream cheese is sure to please everyone.
