How to Make Bacon Mushroom Chicken

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  3. Arrange 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in the baking dish, skin-side down. Sprinkle generously with 1 teaspoon seasoning salt and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
  4. Turn chicken breasts over, season the other side with seasoning salt and garlic powder. Lay 6-8 slices of bacon (about 4 oz) on top of each chicken breast.
  5. Sprinkle 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms evenly over the bacon.
  6. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F) and juices run clear.
  7. Carefully remove the chicken, bacon, and mushrooms from the baking dish to a serving platter. Keep warm.
  8. Pour the pan juices from the baking dish into a small saucepan. Whisk in 1/2 cup heavy cream over low heat until the sauce has thickened slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
  9. Pour the creamy mushroom sauce over the chicken and serve immediately with mashed potatoes or rice.
