Ingredients

1½ lbs boneless chicken breast

salt & pepper, to taste

1/2 tbsp butter

2 strips bacon

1/2 large sweet onion, diced (~160g)

1 large carrot, peeled & sliced (~111g)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 lb cremini mushrooms, sliced

1 cup dry riesling

1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard

1/4 cup almond milk

1/2 tbsp cornstarch

fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Directions

Pat chicken dry with a paper towel and season all sides with salt & pepper.

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Cook the chicken until evenly browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Set chicken aside.

Add the bacon to the skillet and cook until crispy, then set aside.

Add the onion & carrots to the skillet and sauté until they begin to brown. Stir in the garlic & mushrooms and continue to cook, stirring often, about 5 more minutes.

Return chicken to skillet with the wine and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until chicken is done, about 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, milk & cornstarch until well combined. Once chicken is cooked, whisk in milk mix and simmer for a few minutes, until thickened.

Top with the bacon and optional parsley.
