To prepare this dish, the chicken is put into the skillet and is topped with diced bacon. It is then surrounded with mushrooms, lemon, and red onions, then cooked in the oven for 35 minutes. The sauce consisting of white wine, cream, mustard and garlic was added and then cooked again in the oven for another 45 minutes. The chicken came out juicy and flavorful and I especially loved it with the mushrooms and white beans. It is a satisfying and hearty dish that is both tasty and easy to cook!
