Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the chicken, skin side up on a cast iron skillet. Arrange the mushrooms, red onion and lemon around the chicken. Sprinkle the diced bacon on top of the chicken. Roast in the oven until the bacon is crisp, about 35 minutes.
In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the white wine, cream, mustard and garlic.
Remove the cast iron from the oven. Move the crisp diced bacon from top of the chicken and place it around the chicken. Pour the wine mixture around the chicken, avoiding the skin. Stir in the thyme and beans and then season with salt and pepper.
