Bistro Chicken




Cooked this tonight and my five year old son completely devoured it. It's kind a manly mans dinner due to heaviness but mom thoroughly enjoyed this meal as well!!! I cooked some linguine mixed with spaghetti sauce and placed a chicken breast covered in the tomato gravy it cooked in on top. I added some chicken broth to the tomato mixture. I made some breadsticks as well. Happy Cooking!


2 tsp oil
3 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 onion, chopped
1 15 oz. can stewed tomatoes (undrained)
¼ cup Zesty Italian dressing
1 tbsp. tomato paste
4 small boneless chicken breasts
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

This recipe is so simple that you won’t even need any step-by-step photos to follow!

Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet on medium high heat. Add the mushrooms (I didn’t have any fresh, so I used a can of sliced mushrooms) and onions. Cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Stir in the tomatoes, dressing and tomato paste.

Add the chicken breasts. Cover and simmer on medium-low heat 12 minutes or until chicken is done. Top each chicken breast with cheese and bacon. You can cook up a couple of slices of bacon in the microwave or you could substitute about a 1/4 cup of bacon bits if you have those. Simmer, uncovered an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
