How to Make Italian Bacon Tomato Chicken Strata
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook 6 ounces of bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels; set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
- Add 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the skillet with the reserved bacon grease. Sauté until cooked through (about 6-8 minutes), then slice into thin strips and set aside.
- In a 13x9 inch baking dish, arrange 4-6 slices of focaccia bread to cover the bottom.
- Top the focaccia with 1 cup of sliced fresh tomatoes and then the cooked bacon.
- Arrange the sliced chicken over the bacon.
- Cover the chicken with another 4-6 slices of focaccia.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the strata. Sprinkle with 1 ½ cups of shredded Italian cheese blend (mozzarella, asiago, and parmesan).
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the strata is set.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting into 8 squares.
- Serve hot with a fresh Italian salad for a complete meal. Enjoy!
