I used chicken steaks because that's what I had, but you can also use chicken breast halves or pieces. It's really up to you, this recipe is very easy and very delicious.

This is an easy tasty chicken dish. The sweet shallots in a bacon wine sauce are a great complement to the chicken.

Chicken and leeks in bacon-infused cream sauce Chicken and leeks in bacon-infused cream sauce

This dish is inspired by the French bistro fare my wife and I love. The key is the bacon-infused cream, which sounds fancy and tastes amazing, but is actually really simple.

Mushroom & Bacon Cream Sauce Mushroom & Bacon Cream Sauce

Generally, I serve this over grilled or pan-fried chicken cutlets or with thick-cut pork chops. Both ways are absolutely glorious.This sauce is surprisingly easy to make and will shock your taste buds as well as those of your dinner guests. Few would accept the truth that so few ingredients and so little work can turn into something so rich and amazing

Brad's bacon breaded pork cutlet with apple cider gravy Brad's bacon breaded pork cutlet with apple cider gravy

Since this was a weekday meal I didn't have time to make the gravy from scratch. If you prefer to, use half and half cider and water. Then add bouillon and thicken.
