Creamy Spinach and Bacon Chicken

Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
6 slices bacon, chopped
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups fresh spinach
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Preparation

Season the Chicken: Season 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Cook the Bacon: In the same skillet, cook 6 chopped bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Cook the Mushrooms: Add 8 oz sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Make the Sauce: Reduce heat to low and add 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.
Add the Spinach: Stir in 2 cups fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
Season the Sauce: Add 1 tsp garlic powder and 1 tsp onion powder, mixing well.
Combine and Serve: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Sprinkle with cooked bacon and simmer for 5 minutes.
