Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon white pepper
5 slices bacon
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
2 cups peeled, cored and diced pears
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons cold water
¼ cup chopped green onion

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Rub chicken breasts with salt and white pepper. Place chicken breasts in the hot skillet, and cook for about 10 minutes on each side, until the juices run clear.
  • Meanwhile, place bacon in a saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook until crisp. Remove bacon, and drain grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. Stir in some of the chicken broth, and scrape any bacon bits stuck to the pan. Pour in the rest of the broth, and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Add pears, and boil for 5 more minutes.
  • In a small cup, mix together the cornstarch and water. Pour the mixture into the saucepan along with the green onions. Allow the sauce to boil until thick and bubbly, about 2 minutes. Crumble bacon into the pan. Serve sauce over chicken.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was overcooked and the pear sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

Not bad! The chicken was a bit dry for my taste, but the pear sauce was delicious. I'll try it again with a different cooking method for the chicken.

This recipe was easy to follow and the end result was so impressive. The pear sauce was the perfect complement to the chicken and the whole dish was full of flavor. I'll be making this again for sure.

Simple but delicious! I didn't have any pears on hand so I used apples instead and it turned out great.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved the unique flavor of the pear sauce and the chicken was so tender. Will definitely be making this again.
