Creamy Bacon Honey Dijon Skillet Chicken

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! It starts off with some bacon which is cooked in the skillet before adding the chicken to cook in the bacon grease followed by the sauce with the classic, and so amazing, honey-mustard flavour combo!

Creamy Bacon Honey Dijon Skillet Chicken

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

1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat and set aside.
2. 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.
3. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about a minute.
4. Add the chicken broth and deglaze the pan by scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pa as the broth sizzles.
5. 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.
