Ingredients

  • 1/4 pound skinless boneless chicken breast
  • 1 slice bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

How To Make sauteed chicken with scallion bacon vinaigrette

  • Step 1
    Place bacon in medium nonstick skillet; set over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 2-3 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer bacon to plate lined with paper towels and drain. Pour off and discard all but 1/2 tsp of bacon drippings.
  • Step 2
    Sprinkle chicken with paprika, pepper and salt. Add chicken to same skillet and cook, turning once, until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to plate.
  • Step 3
    To make vinaigrette, add scallions to same skillet; cook, stirring constantly until softened, 1 minute. Add broth and vinegar; bring to boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until liquid is reduced by half, about 1 minute. Stir in bacon. Spoon Vinaigrette over chicken.
  • Step 4
    Note: White balsamic vinegar is a lighter, sweeter cousin of the more common dark balsamic vinegar. If you don't have any on hand, use white wine vinegar in this recipe.
