Cheesy Bacon Ranch Chicken

INGREDIENTS

• 4 slices thick-cut bacon
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 3/4 lbs.)
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tsp. ranch seasoning
• 1 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella 
• Chopped chives, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon, flipping once, until crispy, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate. Drain all but 2 tablespoons of bacon fat from the skillet.
2. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Return skillet to medium-high heat, add chicken and cook until golden and just cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. 
3. Reduce heat to medium and sprinkle chicken with ranch seasoning and top with mozzarella. Cover the skillet and cook, until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5 minutes. 
4. Crumble and sprinkle bacon and chives on top before serving.
