Ingredients

  • 6 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, approximately 1½ pounds, pat dry
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

CREAMED CORN

  • 2 -3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced (about ½ cup)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen corn kernels, thawed
  • 1 cup (238 g) heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ½ cup (122.5 g) whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup (25 g) parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, fry the chopped bacon pieces for 9-11 minutes, or until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Drain the bacon grease, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the skillet to cook the chicken.
  • Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on both sides of the chicken breasts. Rub the mixture into each to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
  • To the skillet with the reserved bacon grease over medium heat, add seasoned chicken. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink and cooked through. (Chicken is fully cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165°F.)
  • Remove chicken from pan, place on a plate, and tent with aluminum foil to keep warm.

Creamed Corn

  • In the same skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Once melted, add the onion. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until brown. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Add corn, cream, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and flour. Pour into the corn mixture and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until thickened (about 2 minutes).
  • Add the cooked bacon and parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir to combine until the cheese is completely melted.
  • Top with cooked chicken.
  • Garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.
