• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
• Remove chicken from the marinade with tongs and place into hot skillet. Season each side with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown but not cooked through, working in batches as not to over-crowd the pan.
• Place browned chicken on prepared baking sheet.
• In the same skillet, add butter and melt over medium heat. Stir in mushrooms and a pinch of salt, and cook until tender and starting to brown. Remove from heat.
• Divide and spoon mushrooms over the chicken breasts, followed by 2 slices of bacon, and the Monterrey jack cheese.

• For the chicken and spring vegetables: Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, dill, parsley and garlic together in a large bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the marinade. Add the chicken to the bowl with the remaining marinade and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Toss the carrots and 1 tablespoon of the reserved marinade in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and put on a sheet pan, skin-side up. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Scatter the carrots around the chicken in a single layer; reserve the bowl. Roast the chicken and vegetables until the chicken turns opaque on the outside, about 15 minutes.
• Toss the potatoes and scallions with the remaining 1 tablespoon marinade in the reserved bowl used for the carrots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven and scatter the potatoes and scallions in a single layer around the chicken. Continue to roast until the vegetables are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken (avoiding the bone) registers 165 degrees F, about 30 minutes more.
