  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 6 slices of crispy bacon
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup dry Riesling wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, brown the chicken breasts on each side until golden. Remove and set aside.
  2. Using the same skillet, add a little olive oil if needed. Sauté the chopped onion and garlic until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Crumble the cooked bacon and set aside.
  3. Pour in the Riesling wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly. Add chicken broth and cook for another 5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, then return the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cover and cook on low heat for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Garnish with fresh parsley and crumbled bacon before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of chicken broth or cream to restore creaminess.
  • For best flavor, consume within the recommended timeframe.
