Bacon Spinach Feta Chicken

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 slices bacon chopped
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 5 ounces baby spinach
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ ounce Parmesan cheese grated (about ½ cup)
  • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese about 3 ounces

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain , leaving the bacon grease in the pan.
  2. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and place in the skillet, laying them flat. Cook for 4 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove to a plate.
  3. Add the butter to the skillet. When melted, add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the spinach and saute until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan and cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the bacon to the sauce and stir to combine. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat. Sprinkle the crumbled feat over the top.
