BACON MUSHROOM CHICKEN



2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 bone-in chicken breast halves, with skin
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 clove garlic, crushed (I used garlic powder)
2 thick slices bacon
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup heavy cream

Preheat oven to 350.

Pour melted butter into a 9x13 inch-baking dish. Add chicken, skin side down; sprinkle with seasoning salt and garlic. Turn chicken over, season, and lay bacon strips on top. Sprinkle with mushrooms.

Bake in preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Remove chicken, bacon and mushrooms to a platter and keep warm. Pour juices from baking dish into a small saucepan and whisk together with cream over low heat until thickened. Pour sauce over chicken and serve warm.
