This recipe combines the savory flavors of chicken, bacon, and rosemary with a zesty lemon sauce for a delightful meal.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, then transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
Cooking the bacon first allows you to use its rendered fat for added flavor in the dish.
Place the flour in a shallow dish. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then coat them in the flour, shaking off any excess.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated for a consistent crust.
Add the butter to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat and heat. Cook the chicken until golden brown on both sides, then transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil.
Do not overcrowd the skillet to ensure even browning.
Reduce the heat to medium and sauté the garlic and rosemary in the skillet until fragrant. Add the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze.
Deglazing the pan incorporates all the flavorful bits into the sauce.
Return the chicken and bacon to the skillet. Simmer, turning the chicken once, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve the chicken topped with the sauce and bacon. Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
