SMOTHERED CHICKEN BREASTS
After trying a similar chicken dish in a restaurant, I decided to re-create it at home. Topped with bacon, caramelized onions and shredded cheese, this savory dish comes together in no time, and uses ingredients that I usually have on hand. And since it cooks in one skillet, it's a cinch to clean up! -Brenda Carpenter, Warrensburg, Missouri

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS
This comforting one-pot dinner is reminiscent of a rich French onion soup, but made in less time and with lighter ingredients. Cooking the onions in a hot, dry pan forces them to release their moisture, so that they shrink and become silky and sweet in 30 minutes. Serve everything directly from the pan, with some crusty bread to soak up all the juices, or shred the chicken and pile it on top of buttered noodles. For something green, stir in some spinach to wilt at the end or serve alongside a simple green salad or roasted broccoli.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
- Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
- Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
- Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
- Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.

- Add the chicken and the seasonings to a large mixing bowl. Mix and massage the meat until the liquids are absorbed and the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.
- Roll the thighs along the long side, then wrap each thigh with one strip of bacon. Make sure that both ends of bacon strips end up at the bottom.
- No preheating is necessary. Place chicken thighs on the rack, top side up, lose bacon strip ends tucked underneath. Fry at 400F for 15 minutes. Flip the thighs, and cook for additional 5 minutes at 400F. Flip and cook for another 5-8 minutes or until the tops are crispy and the chicken has reached at least 165F internal temperature. I like these chicken thighs well-done and cooked to about 185F.Note: the timings may vary from air fryer to air fryer so start checking early the first time you cook these thighs and adjust as needed.
- Preheat the grill to about 350F-400F. Grill over direct heat for about 20-30 minutes, turning frequently, until the internal temperature reaches at least 165F and the bacon is crispy.Note: keep the lid closed to prevent flare-ups; if bacon is getting too crispy before the thighs are cooked through inside, finish cooking over indirect heat.
