Ingredients
- 8 ounces Bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 1/4 pound Skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/2 cup Dry white wine
- 1 (10-1/2-ounce) Can Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup or Campbell's® Healthy Request® Condensed Healthy Request® Cream of Mushroom Soup
Instructions
-
Cook the bacon in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain on paper towel. Reserve 1 tablespoon drippings in the skillet.
-
Season the chicken. Heat the drippings in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat (make sure the skillet and drippings are hot before adding the chicken- it will jump-start the browning and prevent the chicken from sticking). Add the chicken and cook for at least 3 minutes before turning (if it doesn't turn easily give it another minute on that side) then cook until both sides are well browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
-
Add the wine to the skillet and heat to a boil, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Stir in the soup and heat to a boil.
-
Return the chicken and bacon to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Season to taste.
