Instructions
Creating Creamy Chicken Delight with Bacon is straightforward when you follow these easy steps:
1. Cook the Bacon: In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
2. Sauté the Onion and Garlic: In the same skillet, add the olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3. Cook the Chicken: Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Season with paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Add Cream and Broth: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
5. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing it to thicken slightly, about 5-10 minutes.
6. Add Bacon: Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the cooked bacon. Adjust seasoning as needed.
7. Finish and Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
