Smothered Chicken recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 6 slices bacon, chopped

2. In the same skillet, cook 6 chopped bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
3. Add 8 oz sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
4. Reduce heat to low and add 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.
5. Stir in 2 cups fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
6. Add 1 tsp garlic powder and 1 tsp onion powder, mixing well.
7. Return chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Sprinkle with cooked bacon and simmer for 5 minutes.
