Ingredients

1 pound thinly sliced boneless skinless chicken breasts

6 slices thick-cut bacon

1/2 cup dry white wine (Any kind will do. I use a cheap Pinot Grigio)

2 tbl. finely diced shallot

1/4 cup heavy cream

Salt/pepper to taste

Directions

- Cut bacon slices in half. This makes them easier to handle in the pan. -

Fry over medium heat until extremely crispy in a pan WITHOUT non-stick coating.

Remove to paper towels to drain. Do NOT drain grease off of pan.

Salt and pepper your chicken breasts to taste. I prefer freshly ground pepper, personally but whatever you have on hand will work just fine.

Keeping pan over medium heat, place chicken breasts in pan.

Cook 4-5 minutes per side. Resist the urge to move them around once you place them in the pan.

Remove chicken, place to the side. Keep warm.

Throw your finely diced shallot into the bacon grease. If you're feeling especially sinful add a little butter into the mix as well.

Sautee shallot for 3 mins or so.

Now, deglaze the pan with the white wine. Dump it in. Use a whisk to scrape all the little bits of stuff stuck to the bottom of the pan up and into the wine.

Reduce the mixture by half, it shouldn't take more than 2 mins or so of cooking to do it.

Add the cream into the mix. Whisk to combine. If you'd like your sauce to be thicker, add a pinch of cornstarch and whisk in before you remove it from the heat.

Pour sauce of chicken breasts, crumble bacon over top.
