Better Cooking Tips

- Use fresh chicken breasts for the best texture and taste.
- Cook the bacon until crispy to add a nice crunch to the dish.
- Simmer the sauce gently to avoid curdling and keep it smooth.

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, sweet paprika, and Creole seasoning. Take about 2 teaspoons of this spice blend and set it aside for the sauce. Then, sprinkle the rest evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.

Step 2

Heat some oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate and cover it loosely with foil to keep warm. Wipe out the skillet to get rid of any browned bits.

Step 3

Turn the heat down to medium-low and melt the butter in the same skillet. Add the reserved spice mixture and give it a quick stir. Slowly pour in the heavy cream in two parts, stirring as you go. Let the sauce cook for a few minutes until it thickens up a bit.

Step 4

Finally, plate the chicken and spoon the creamy sauce over the top. Enjoy!

Best Pairings For This Dish

Serve with steamed rice or buttered pasta to soak up the creamy sauce. A side of steamed green vegetables or a fresh salad adds a light contrast and balances the meal nicely.

Storing Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave to avoid separating the sauce. This dish is not ideal for freezing as the cream sauce may change texture.
