Hot Honey Chicken with Bacon & Mushrooms (High Protein Meal)
Hot honey chicken that's tender and juicy, with a sweet and spicy glaze, crumbled bacon, and sautéed mushrooms and onions.
Ingredients
- 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 6 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms sliced
- 4 Bacon Slices diced
- 1 Small Shallot sliced
- ½ cup Honey
- 3 tablespoons Frank's Red Hot Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Minced Garlic
- Salt to taste
- Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice bacon into little bits. Add to a skillet (cast-iron preferred) and cook until it begins to crisp. Set aside and drain the grease from the pan.
- Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Whisk together honey, Frank's Red Hot Sauce, and minced garlic in a bowl. Set aside.
- Pat chicken breasts dry. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat in the same skillet. Add chicken breasts and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden.
- Transfer the chicken breasts to the foil-lined baking sheet and brush the tops with the honey sauce. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your chicken.
- In the same skillet, add a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and shallots. Cook until tender and seared. Set aside.
- Add the remaining honey sauce and bacon to the skillet. Simmer the sauce until it thickens. Place the chicken, mushrooms, and onions back in the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top.
