Creamy Parmesan Carbonara Chicken

Creamy Parmesan Carbonara Chicken is the ultimate twist! Crispy, golden chicken fillets soak up a carbonara inspired sauce for a new chicken recipe loved by the entire family

Ingredients:
For The Chicken:

• 2 large boneless and skinless chicken breasts , halved horizontally to make 4 filets
• 2 heaping tablespoons flour (all purpose or plain)
• 3 tablespoons finely grated fresh Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Cracked pepper

For The Sauce:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons butter (or sub with oil)
• 8- ounces | 250 grams bacon , trimmed of fat and cut into strips (I use shortcut bacon in Australia)
• 1 small onion , chopped
• 6 large cloves garlic , minced or finely chopped
• 1-1/2 cups half and half (or use reduced fat cream or evaporated milk)*
• 1/2 cup finely grated fresh Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch (cornflour) mixed with 2 teaspoons of water

Directions:

1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and parmesan cheese. Dredge seasoned chicken in the flour mixture; shake off excess and set aside.
2. Heat the oil and butter in a large non stick pan or well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until butter has melted and pan is hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side, cooked through and no longer pink (about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your chicken). Transfer onto a warm plate.
3. Add the bacon strips to the pan and fry until crispy.
