SMOTHERED CHICKEN BREAST

To make this Smothered Chicken Breast, You’ll need the following Ingredients:

Ingredients:

4 (6 ounces) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

8 strips bacon

1 onion, sliced

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

Directions:

1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and lemon pepper.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the chicken breasts in hot oil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 13 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove and keep warm.

3. Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; reserve 2 tablespoons drippings. Cook and stir onion and brown sugar in reserved drippings until onion is golden about 5 minutes.

4. Place two bacon strips on each chicken breast half; top with caramelized onions and sprinkle with Colby-Monterey Jack cheese.
