Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, mix the flour and parmesan. Coat the chicken in the flour mixture, shake off the excess and set aside.
  2. Heat the oil and butter in a large non-stick pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the butter melts and the pan is hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side and cooked through with no pink left, about 4-5 minutes per side depending on thickness. Move to a warm plate.
  3. Fry the bacon in the pan until crisp. Pour off excess fat, leaving about 1 teaspoon in the pan. Add the onion and garlic and fry until the onion is translucent, about 1 minute.
  4. Reduce to low heat and add the half and half. Bring to a gentle simmer and season to taste with a little salt and pepper. Stir in the parmesan and simmer until it has slightly melted.
  5. If the sauce is too thin, pour the cornstarch and water mixture into the centre of the pan and stir quickly. It will thicken right away.
  6. Return the chicken to the pan and serve.
